This Phrase is taken from today’s Proverbs chapter, that being Proverbs 28:2 to be exact.

“FOR THE TRANSGRESSION OF A LAND!”

The transgression (“pesha” in Hebrew meaning “rebellion”) of a land?

But everyone knows … land cannot sin! At least not the dirt, the rocks that constitute it physically!

But, and here is the real meaning of this String of Words, the inhabitants of the land can sin, can transgress!

The people can sin!

If this is so, and it is, America is in trouble!

Sexual perversion.

Aborting babies by the millions.

And not just ignoring God any more, but actively rebelling against Him and His Word!

Our Land too (I mean right now) is a Country (proudly it seems) transgressing against God.

And God will hold our Land (our people, us) accountable!

Lord we pray … “In Thy wrath remember mercy.” Habakkuk 3:2
