Ether : 14
So, this chapter was a bit like the last, only worse. Blood, carnage, war, and death throughout pretty much every verse.
One of the beginning verses, though, caught my attention. The one that says that people couldn't go to sleep at night, without losing their treasures, even to the point where they had to sleep with weapons to defend themselves at night.
Makes me feel extraordinarily blessed to live in the times of today. I couldn't imagine living in a time where I couldn't sleep a single night without fear of being robbed. Or was it robbery they were talking about? A curse was mentioned, regarding people losing things... Priestcraft, perhaps?
Not sure... I'm just very grateful I live in times where I don't have to worry about the things that happened to the people in this chapter. Pretty horrific.
