• THERE I S MUCH confusion among our people in regard to the. names g-i\'cn to our Lord. Some suppose that the name given Him by the angel who an-nounced J li s birth to Mary and to Joseph was a new nallle, never known before . and neyer borne by mortal man since. This Chri st mas season has likewise call-ed Ollr special attention to the names given by inspiration and by angelic mcs-:.cngcrs. Let tiS take a close-up view of these wonderful names.

IMMAN UEL (EMM/1NUEL) "Behold, a virgin shall conceive. and

bear a son , and shall call 1-1 is name I mrnanucJ." Isa. 7: 14. Thus prophesied Isa iah , 742 years before the birth of Jeslls Christ, our Immanuel. Abollt two years later the same prophet (ch. 9:6) uttered a more complete and minute prediction concerning our Christ-"For unto us a Olild is born, unto liS a Son is gh'cn: and the govcrnn~ent shall he Ilpon J ri s shou lder: and ] \I S name shal l be called \Vonderful. Counsellor, the r-.lighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace," The verse follow· iog this is a prediction of 1-\ is millennial reign,

\,Vhat then is the meaning of the word "Immanuel," and why did the angel who appeared to Mary, and late r to Joseph, give our Lord the name "Jeslls," instead of "Immanuel"? Luke 1:31 ; MatL 1 :21.

The word "1"'l1Im/lud" (i n the New Testament, written ., Emmanl\c1"-r-.laU. 1 :23), is a Heurew word made li P of three words-im, meaning with, 1/101111, meaning us, and cl, the com· mon name for God- WITH-US·GOD, or, according to our idiom, God.'with-.us. This name is a pred ict ion or a declaratIOn of incarnation. God in the person of our Lord was to be with us and should be very God and very man, the God·man, as so many Scriptu res proclaim. "Not that He was to have this for a proper name (like 'Jesus'), but that He was to come to be known in this charac.ter, as God manifested in the flesh, and the liv-ing bond of holy and most intimate fellow-ship between God and men from hence-forth and forever."

I f this name had been gi\'en to our Lord as J lis personal name in the begin· ning, it would have arOllsed the fierce opposition of the Jewish authorities frOIll the first, for they knew thi s prophecy in Isaiah. It is clear that God wanted the evidence of the divine nature of Jesus to be brought forth before the claim was made that Jesus was the Alessiah. To the hUlllble·minded Mary and Joseph and the devout shepherds on the J udcan hills, the true character and mission of Jeslls was announced by the angels. r..

• AS CHRIST~L\S draw" I\('ar, our thoughts again return to the little town of Bethlehem, and the great drama of the a~es that was unfolded there. But we must go hack further than that -hack to the G:!rden of Eden, for the firH prom-j"e of tbe Incarnation. God there g,I\'c the promise that the seed of the woman should bruise the serpent 's head. Both prophecy and mystery were hound in th:! t ph r:!se, "seed of the woman." It mean t that the promised "Satan bruiser " should ha \'e no earthly father. and re

IN THE CITY OF P EACE J erusalem is "The City of Peace"-but the

stillness that shrouds thl': ci ty this Christma~ Eve is only a truce. The people of I ~rae l are in possession of the modern sectiom of Jenl-salem. but Abdullah'~ Arab troops sti!! hold the ancielll inner city. And although the UK Palestine Conciliation Commission is t rying to work out a plan to internationalize the dty. nei ther Jews nor A rabs will agree and there seems to be lillle hope of settling the issue without a fresh outbreak of \iolence.

O l'er 50.000 Christian Arabs have settled in the ancient to\11l of Bethlehem.

They believe tha t only slich an administ ra t ion would satisfy the desire of religious J ews to li \'e in the old ci ty unnlO-k sted. and permit the Christian A rabs and Jews to li\·c l}('acefully ~ide by side in Bethlehem as they have done for centur ies.

DISTRESS S IG:-.'AL? A motorist Ililssing the big Pentagon Build-

P:s were blamed for the bung le. An early-morning fog that hid the tOps of the poles was a factor in causing the mistake.

One might wOllder, howevcr. \1 hether the in_ cident happened entirely by chance-for flags flying upsidc down are an international di stress signal. There is certainly plenty of distress tooay- "Distress of n:Hions. with perplexity
