20 The people of Judah and Israel were as numerous as the sand on the seashore; they ate, they drank and they were happy.
This sentence fulfills the words God gave to Abraham....way back in what book?.....I can't remember. Was that in Genesis? I think it was. God talked about his descendants being as numerous as the sands and the stars. He also promised that his people would settle into the land of milk and honey, and this is obviously it. It sounds like the Golden Age of the Israelite people. Lots of land, lots of riches, and wise and just leaders. Why do I get the feeling they are going to do something stupid?
