"Treasures of Wisdom"

By Ernest Lloyd

IN the treasure room of one of the old German states there is a silver egg, once given as a present to the former queen of England. When a spring is touched, the silver egg opens, and discloses a golden yolk. Within this again is a chicken, whose wing being pressed, also flies open, showing a splendid gold crown, studded with jewels. Yet another spring will bring to view a magnificent diamond ring hidden in the center — a forceful illustration of the hidden treasures in the Word. The treasures of the kingdom are to be "sought out," and are often found quite unexpectedly, treasure within treasure, by those who "have pleasure therein." God has great surprises for those who "search diligently" through its pages, and He will disclose wonderful things to all who sit at His feet to learn, as did Mary of old.
