Dick:
For Proverbs 28:18 I read it that they would fall in one moment, not for
one moment.
In Jeremiah, I understood it to be talking about the idols, not the people
who made them. As such, the idols would be consumed (burned up) in a moment,
its futile hold would be made twisted (like intestines), for it is wood.
Have I messed up again?
Karl W. Randolph.
