From the whole account we learn the order of procession. From whatever different *fli»r6ea the present account may have been drawn, the atory la one harmonious statement of the facta. The order of march teems to have been as follows; First A vanguard of armed men who marched In alienee at the bead of the procession (vs. (. 10). They were to utter no vainglorious speoebes —such as Goliath did when be met David, and De Bohan at Bannockburn —to give no answer to tbe taunts which the men on tbe walls may have

thrown at them.

For Six Successive Days—V. 14 This was trying to their faith, and may have seemed to giotne to be a hopeless waste of time.
