The Holy Land in the light of recent surveys and explorationsA hand book for Sunday-school teachers and Bible students . Egyptians and Jewsin the Hasmonean days; the elephants and engines ofAntiochus; the litters of Cleopatra; the Romans plant-ing their camps; then the black tents of the Arabbedouin; pilgrims arrive and cloisters are built; Cru-sading castles rise; then the Arabs break the line ofthe Christian defense and Saladin spreads his campwhere Israel saw those of Midian and the Philistines;Napoleon, with his monstrous ambition of an empireon the Euphrates, breaks into it by Megiddo, and inthree short months falls back again upon the first greatretreat of his career. What a plain it is! Men havefelt that there was fighting from heaven, the stars intheir courses were fighting. But we are reminded ofone who came there eighteen centuries ago, the Princeof Peace. Yonder he taught the multitudes, fed thefamished thousands, and stilled the stormy sea; thereat Nain he staunched the tears of sorrow and raisedthe dead to life.

After the death of Moses, Israel crossed theJordan as she had crossed the Red Sea, dry shod(Josh. 3), the river being arrested from the district ofZaretan, which is beyond Succoth (1 Kings 7, 46).The city Adam is most likely represented by theDamieh ford at Succoth, eighteen miles up from Jer-icho; a great length of the river being thus dried upallowed the far-spreading host to cross rapidly. Theirfirst camp on the west of Jordanwas at Gilgal. The name Gilgalprobably arose from the erection of stone circles inconnection with heathen worship. If so, Joshua gavea new meaning to the name by the erection there ofhis twelve stones, so consecrating the spot that hadbeen devoted to ignorant superstitions by a memorialof Jehovahs miraculous interposition in favor of Hiscovenant people. But faint traces of ruin
