BRAGADAYJAH 816


BRAGADAYJAH 816

Now after the ark of the Lord was in the land of the Philistines seven month during which the plague of sickness had befallen them, the Philistines called for the priests and the diviners and asked them what they should do, whether they should send the ark away to its place? “Yes,” they were told, “send it away, but send it not away empty; but whatever you do send it with a trespass offering that you may be healed and you would know that it was the hand of God that was upon you.”  So the people asked what shall be the nature of the trespass offering.  And they were told, five golden emerods, and images of the mice that mar the land.  Also they were told to give glory unto the God of Israel. “Perhaps He would then lighten His hand from you and your gods and your land.”  “Remember,” they were told, “how the Egyptians and Pharaoh had hardened their hearts and God had shown His mighty power among them until they let his people go.”
