ENRICHMENTS FROM THE WORD:
THE DAY THE BOOK WAS FOUND...
Written from the Word, by MIISRAEL Shields
Curtians opens:
Scene: Inside the temple of the Lord-- While they were bringing out the money that had been taken to the temple of the Lord, Hilkiah, the priest found the Book of Law of the Lord that had been given through Moses. Hilkian said to Shaphan, the secretary, "I have found the Book of the Law in the Temple of the Lord!" He gave it to Shaphan to take to the king.
[Later.....at the king's court. Shapan presents the Book to the king]
KING JOSIAH: "You have brought the Book of the Law and I have heard the words of the Lord. "Then I tear my robes!...for ..I am weeping." The Lord is angered with us because we have not kept his words....and done things against his accordance of his law. God's wrath is upon us now...But go....and tell the prophetess Huldah the wife of Shallum in Jerusalem to advice us what we must do to reconcile his wrath upon us this day."
{The Word with MIISRAEL}-- And the king sent Hilkia, Ahiakam and the son of Shaphan, Abdon son of Micah, and Shaphan the secretary and also the king's attendant, Asaiah to see the prophethess Huldah.
This is what she told them...
HULDAH THE PROPHETESS: "Tell the man who sent you that this is what the Lord said; "I am going to bring disaster on this place and it's people--all the curses written in the book has been read in the presence of the king of Judah, because they have forsaken me and burned incense to other gods and provoked me to anger by their hands they have made." " My anger will be poured out on this place and will not be quenched!" .... However.. with mercy he says... "Go and tell the king because your heart was responsive and you humbled yourself before God when you heard what he spoke and tore your robe and wept, I have heard you. "I will see that you be buried in peace.".. "Your eyes will not see the disaster I was going to bring on those who live here."
Then they hurried and took the message of God from Huldah back to the king.....
After hearing the message the king called together all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem. He and all the people, the priest and the Levites; everyone from the poorest to the richest went all to the temple of God.
Scene: A huge crowd of people at outside the temple's court. A mumbling and curious croud awaited for the king's speech. Then the king went before the people... There he stood up and read in their presence The Book of the Covenant to all present company of the people. As he stood by his pillar and renewed the covenant in the presence of the Lord to follow and keep his commands, regulations and decrees with all his heart and soul, and to obey the words of the covenant written in the Book. ...Then the people took the pledge to follow the Book of God's Law, The God of their fathers..
KING JOSIAH: [Speaking loudly..] "Now take down all these idol gods!...and remove them! Destroy them! "Break them apart and let us give worship to the God of our Fathers who has shown and give us mercy from his wrath!"
Following the orders given by the king...the people and all the officials obeyed...
The end.
Curtains closes.
This Bibical Theatre is taken from:
[2 Chronicles Chapter 34]
