8. Je-ru´sa-lem, the capital of Pal´es-tine (Judg. 1. 8).
9. Mem´phis, the early capital of E´gypt, on the Nile (Hos. 9. 6).
Other names of places might be given indefinitely, but it is desirable not to require the student to burden his memory with lists of names, and therefore the most important only are given.
Hints to the Teacher
Have a good blackboard for the map drawing, and see that each scholar is supplied with a tablet or pad of paper.
1. Let the teacher first draw on the board in presence of the class the boundaries of the Seas, and require the class to draw them also on tablet or pad, holding the pad so that its longest side will be from right to left. Inspect each pupil's design, and see that it is fairly correct, but do not seek for finished drawing. A rough sketch is all that should be desired.
2. Next draw the lines representing Mountain Ranges, and require the class to do the same. Review the names of the Seas, and also of the Mountain Ranges.
3. Place on the board the lines representing the Rivers, and let the pupils do the same, and review Seas, Mountains, and Rivers.
4. Show the three Natural Divisions; indicate on the map the Lands in the order given, and let the pupils do the same. See that the pupils know the name and location of each Land, and review Seas, Mountains, Rivers, and Lands.
5. Indicate on the blackboard the Places named in the lesson, and have the pupils also locate and name them. Review Seas, Mountains, Rivers, Lands, and Places.
