46. Different sorts of devourers ate up every green herb and tree. What one
would not eat another did. What they expected from the natural fertility of the
soil and what they looked for from their own toil, they saw devoured before
their eyes by an insatiable multitude against whose depredations no defense
could be found. Observe in the text that the Lord did it all—“he sent,” “he gave,” “he destroyed,” “he gave up”—whatever the second agent
may be, the direct hand of the Lord is in every national visitation.
