J A Lapham presents the lesson on I Kings 12 1 24 with emphasis on pride and selfishness as causes of division. He cites Rehoboams folly and Jeroboams rise, urging self denial following Jesus and service in the church while noting divine plans and human responsibility. The piece weaves biblical references with social commentary on power, wealth, and unity.
A fragmentary excerpt from historical commentary contrasts pride with humility, citing John G Whittier on innocence and a childlike heart. It cites Rehoboam’s failed policy and William Jennings Bryan praising the neighborly command to love. It evokes themes of brotherhood and colonial unity in Independence Hall.
The author urges preparation for a Sunday review and assigns tasks for a class project. Students should prepare sketches of Saul, David, and Solomon and be ready to answer questions about each life. The aim is to dissolve political bands linking peoples and to study biblical figures in class.
