Nyone who undertakes to lead an upright Christian life is facing a lion. If he is in business, society, politics or any public place, in the opening years of the twentieth cen tury, he has gone down into a pit. If he proposes to be loyal there to God's holy Sabbath, then it is a snowy day. Also he went down and slew a lion in a pit in a snowy day. The text is a brief report of one of three valiant deeds done by one Benaiah, the son of Jehoida, for which he was given a place of honor in the standing army of King David.
