MIRACLES.
ANOTHER INTERESTING
SERMON.
Preaching at St. Peter's Church yesterday the Rev. E. Martin said: Hebrew writers always spoke of the Almighty as the direct cause of every event in na- ture and history. Of course it is true that the Divine Will either mediately or immediately. is all- ruling. But when Biblical writers asoribe to God's immediate inter- vention-acte which He~her brought about by secondary causes is is not necessary to interpret the words literally. For instance at the crossing of the Red Sea Exodus XV says "The waters were piled up, the floods stood up right" and ascribes this to God'a direct Agency. But the alder narrative in Chapter XIV dis- tinctly states "The Lord caused the ses to go back by a strong East wind." which was quite pos sible at the shallow, Iske above the Red Sea. This interpretation of many Old Testament miracles is Dow commonly recognised by devcut scholars.
In some instances miraculous stories have arisen from ancient poetry, as the poem where Joshua. prays that the sud may stand still during battle: meaning to ask that light may last long enough for complete victory. But the prose parrator states that "the Sun stayed in the midst of beaven," ascribing God's answer to prayer to a stupendous miracle which the earlier writer did not. intend
