4. =Nin'e-veh=, the capital of As-syr'i-a, on the Ti'gris (Gen. 10. 11; Jonah 3. 3). 5. =Ha'ran=, a home of A'bra-ham, in Mes-o-po-ta'mi-a (Gen. 11. 31). 6. =Da-mas'cus=, the capital of Syr'i-a, in the southern part of that province (Gen. 15. 2). 7. =Tyre=, the commercial metropolis of Phoe-ni'cia (Ezek. 27. 3). 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. 6. Let the pupils redraw the map at home from copy, and at the next session of the class call upon five pupils to go in turn to the board--the first to draw the Seas, and then receive criticism from the class, the second the Mountains, the third the Rivers, the fourth the Lands, and the fifth the Places. 7. If another review could be given it would be an excellent plan to call for the reading of the Bible references in the lesson, and require a student to name and locate on the blackboard the Sea or Mountain or River or Land or Place named in the reference. It will abundantly reward the teacher to occupy three or four sessions of the class on this map and its reviews. 8. Let the pupils read all the facts of the lesson from the hints given in the following Blackboard Outline and answer all the Review Questions.
