26, 1956 HARK THE HERALD Christmas Bible Reading- ISAIAS Chapter 51, 1-16 An Exhortation To Trust in Christ IVE EAR to me, you? that follow that which is just, and you that seek the Lord. Look unto the rock whence you are hewn, and to the hole of the pit from which you are dug out. Look unto Abraham your father, and to Sara that bore you, for I called him alone, and Messed him, and multiplied him. The Lord therefore will comfort Sion, and will comfort all the ruins thereof. And he will make her desert as a place of pleasure, and her wilderness as the garden of the Lord.

Joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of praise. Hearken unto me, my people, and give ear to me, my tribes, for a law shall go forth from me, and my judgment shall rest to be a light of the nations. My just one is near at hand, my savior is gone forth, and my arms shall judge the people; the islands shall look for me, and shall patiently wait for my arm. Lift up your eyes to heaven, and look down to the earth beneath, for the heavens shall vanish like smoke, and the earth shall be worn away like a garment, and the inhabitants thereof shall perish in like manner. But my salvation shall be forever, and my justice shall not fciil.

Hearken to me, you that know what is just, my people who have my law in your heart. Fear ye not the reproach of men, and be not afraid of their blasphemies. For the worm shall eat them up as a garment, and the moth shall consume them as wool; but my salvation shall be forever, and my justice from generation to generation. Arise, arise, put on strength, thou arm of the Lord. Arise as in the days of old, in the ancient generations.

Hast not thou struck the proud one, and wounded the dragon? Hast not thou dried up the sea, the water of the mighty deep, who madest the depth of the sea a way that the delivered might pass over? And now they that are redeemed by the Lord, shall return, and shall come into Sion singing praises, and joy everlasting shall be upon their heads, they shall obtain joy and gladness: sorrow and mourning shall flee away. I. I myself will comfort you. Who art thou, that thou shouldst be afraid of a mortal man, and of the son of man, who shall wither away like grass? And thou hast forgotten the Lord thy maker, who stretched out the heavens, and founded the earth; and thou hast been afraid continually all the dav at the presence of his fury who afflicted thee, and had prepared himself, to destroy thee. Where is now the fury of the oppressor? He shall quickly come that is going to open unto you, and he shall not kill unto utter destruction, neither shall his breifd fail.

But I am the Lord thy God, who trouble the sea, and the waves thereof swell: the Lord of hosts is my name. I have put my words in thy mouth, and have protected thee in the shadow of my hand, that thou mightest plant the heavens, and found the earth, and mightiest say to Sion: Thou art my people.

Police troops. Burns, UN Emergency Force Commander in Egypt, discussed the air liaison plan in a 40 minute conference with Maj. General Moshe Dayan, Israeli Army Chief of Staff. Burns told newsmen later, that he and Dayan also renewed their planning for further withdrawal of Israeli invasion forces from the Sinai desert. The Canadian General said, that troops spearheading a UNEF movement into the desert had reached their line about 45 miles from the Suez Canal.

He said he was sending a detailed report to UN Secretary-Gentral Dag today on the result of his meeting with Dayan. Burns made no mention of the controversy over the Gaza strip. Just Tuesday, Israeli premier David Ben-Gurion repeated that Israel would not evacuate the strip and return it to the Egyptian control. But Burns said he told Dayan, would be established between withdrawing Israelis and any Egypt troops that might enter the Sinai desert. Very few Egyptians, would move into Sinai in the near future.
