    “How Didst Thou Write?”

    We may see things in relation to the work of Mrs. White which we do not understand. Ancient Israel saw things which they could not understand in the work of the prophets of olden days. When Jeremiah came to the king and princes of Israel with his warning, predicting the downfall of Jerusalem and calling upon the people to repent, he was met with the same questioning which is now given by some to the writings of the Lord’s messenger. Of the princes it is said:TOJ 62.2

    “They asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How didst thou write all these words at his mouth? Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these words unto me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.” Jeremiah 36:17, 18.TOJ 62.3

    And later some of these men, in their determination to evade the plain instruction of the Lord, charged upon Baruch the responsibility of setting Jeremiah against them, of poisoning his mind, and thus being responsible for the warnings which the prophet gave them.TOJ 63.1

    “It came to pass, that when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking unto all the people all the words of the Lord their God, for which the Lord their God had sent him to them, even all these words, then spake Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the proud men, saying unto Jeremiah, Thou speakest falsely; the Lord our God hath not sent thee to say, Go not into Egypt to sojourn there: but Baruch the son of Neriah setteth thee on against us, for to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they might put us to death, and carry us away captive into Babylon.” Jeremiah 43:1-3.TOJ 63.2

    How strikingly this illustrates objections which we hear against the writings of Mrs. White today!TOJ 63.3
