Jeremiah 31:29In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children’s teeth are set on edge.The bequethment of the ungodlyThere is this great difference between moral and physical evil--that men will use all their carefulness to avoid the one, while every imaginable prohibition is ineffectual to deter them from the other.
