Jews; through his seed, namely, through. Christ the Savior, who is the heavenly ladder upon which the angels. God ascended and descended, all the nations of the earth have been. We find another remarkable instance of the magnetic influence in. Jacob. It is as follows: Jacob agreed with Laban that he would still. Laban would give him as a reward for. Laban consented to this proposal, and Jacob became. It is worth the trouble to insert the passage relating to. When Jacob would no longer watch over the sheep and desired to go. Laban said unto him, Genesis 3. I pray thee, if I have found favor in thine eyes, tarry: for I. Lord hath blessed me for thy sake. And he said Appoint me thy wages, and I will give it. And he said unto. Thou knowest how I have served thee and how thy cattle was with me. For it was little which thou hadst before I came, and it is now increased. Lord hath blessed thee since my coming. I provide for mine own house also? And he. said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob said, Thou shalt not give me. I will again feed and. I will pass through all thy flock to- day, removing from thence all. So shall my righteousness answer for me in time to come, when it shall. And Laban said, Behold, I would it might be according to. And he removed that day the he- goats that were ring- streaked and. And he set three days' journey betwixt himself. Jacob: and Jacob fed the rest of. Laban's flocks. And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the. And he set the rods which he had. And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle ring- streaked. And Jacob did separate the lambs, and. Laban; and he put his own flocks by themselves, and put them. Laban's cattle. And it came to pass whensoever the stronger cattle. Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the cattle in the. But when the cattle were. Laban's and the stronger Jacob's. And the man increased exceedingly. This proves clearly that the sheep and the goats could be made to. Jacob as they. drank from the water. In these days, the theory that the features of the. The fact that. the sheep and the goats, upon seeing the objects which Jacob so skillfully. Either Jacob knew what the result. Genesis 3. 1: 1. 0: "And it came to pass at the time.

The great. army of Materialists, who represent the spirit of the scriptures and of life. Moses himself, the great man of God, had many remarkable visions. These visions consisted in part of dreams and partly in ecstasies, and for. Egyptians and in. On account of his. Pharaoh. His visions were of a diversified character. His ability to lead and govern the people was the direct result of. If we regard this ability as mere inward sight, then we. God (for according to the scriptures God often. Moses), we find in it a confirmation of the truth. The first important vision of Moses occurred at Mount Horeb, while he. Jethro, his father- in- law. Exod. 3: 2): "And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a. Moses said, I will. And. when the Lord saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out. Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes. Moses, the prophetic seer, acquainted with the weakness of his. Midian, where he had time and. The centrum of his mind was open to the higher influences of God, who. We find in Moses the emotions of an inward psychological struggle with. While he was thus equipped with godlike powers, he subdued the. God by the marvelous wonders which he performed. In such ecstasies Moses. The visions of Moses embrace the present and the future. He not. only delivered the commands of God from the mountain, but he also foresaw. Israel for the pure worship of God, and. In addition to the. Moses, his gifts, his ability to transfer the power of divination. Among a few instances, resembling magnetism, we mention particularly. Moses performed his wonders before Pharaoh. Exod. 1. 4: 1. 6): "But lift thou up thy rod and stretch out thy hand. Moses stretched out his hand over the. And when the Egyptians pursued them. Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to his. Egyptians fled against it. Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea, so there. The stretching out of the hand of. Moses and the wonders he performed with his rod are of great significance. With his rod he smote the rock in Rephidim, and the water. Exod. 1. 7: 5). "And the Lord said unto Moses, go on before the people, and take. Israel; and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest. And when. Amalek came and fought against Israel, Moses said unto Joshua (Exod. Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek; tomorrow. I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand. And it. came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when. Amalek prevailed.". The gift of prophecy seems also to have been given to the pious elders. Israel through their intercourse with Moses, for it is written (Num. And the Lord said unto Moses, Is the Lord's hand waxed. And Moses went out and told the people the words of the Lord. And the Lord came down in a cloud. But there remained. Eldad, and. the name of the other Medad: and the spirit rested upon them: and they. And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant. Moses, one of his young men, answered and said, My lord Moses. And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? God that all the Lord's people were prophets, and that the Lord. The various conditions of clairvoyance are clearly described by Moses. Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Ethiopian whom he. Num. 1. 2: 2- 8): "Hath the Lord indeed. Moses? Hath he not also spoken by us? And the. Lord heard it. And the Lord came down in a pillar of the cloud and. Aaron and Miriam: and they both came forth. And he said, Hear. If there be a prophet among you, I the Lord will make. My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all my house. With him. will I speak mouth to mouth, even apparently and not in dark speeches. Lord shall he behold." And so it was also. Israelites and other nations, and is now in our magnetic. Moses, it is to behold in the true form. The personal conversations of God with Moses, and his power of beholding. Almighty in his true similitude are figurative expressions, and. For the Lord speaks through revelation. God be seen by mortal eyes, for He says in another place, "No man can. This language is the expression or impression of. Deity to man, which must be taken according. This language was understood by prophets and consecrated men in all. The language of. God is the influence of a higher light through which the spirit which. God acts as a centrum only on the.

Israel died. Therefore the people came to Moses and said, We have sinned, for we. Lord and against thee: pray unto the Lord that. And Moses prayed for the people. And the Lord said unto Moses, make thee a fiery serpent and set it upon. Num. 2. 1: 4- 9.). The visions and prophecies of Balaam, son of Beor, to whom Balak. Messengers, that he might curse Israel, are also of a remarkable. Num. 2. 2: 2. 3, 2. If Balak would give me his house. I cannot go beyond the word of the Lord, my. God, to do less or more." So spake Balaam to Balak, who tried to bribe. In Numbers 2. 4: 4, 1. Christ: "And. the spirit of the Lord came upon him and he took up his parable and. And the man whose eyes are open hath said : He hath said, which. God, and knew the knowledge of the Most High, which. Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his. I shall see him, but not now; I shall beheld him, but not. Star out of Jacob and a Scepter shall rise out of. Israel. Out of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion." The. Balaam proves that the power to perform wonders was not possessed. Balak, king of the Moabites, being afraid of. Israelites, desired to form a league with the Midianites. But. since neither the Moabites nor the Midianites felt like engaging in. Israelites, they resorted to magic, and since. Balaam, who was. celebrated for his powers of charming and divining. The messengers. came to Balaam with costly presents in their hands (for he took money. Balaam invited them to tarry over night; in the morning. God neither permitted him.

Balak: "If Balak would give me his house full of. I cannot go beyond the word of the Lord my God, to do. And yet, after he had spoken with the Lord during the. Moabite princes, and afterward told the enemies of Israel how. Here follows the history of Balaam's perfect somnambulism. Being a. visionary, he was divided within himself, because he tried to serve.
