(2) Lest they should remove from the land, thus cutting dfTa vital source of revenue and exposing to danger the .eastern border of the land. III. Measures to Check the Growth of Israel (1:11-22). These measures place on exhibition the folly of worldly wisdom (1 Corin thians 3:19). Their fatal mistake was that they left God out of their calcula tions. God had promised that Israel should he great In numbers and mighty in power. He who plans against God shall miserably fail and shall be shown to be a fool. 1. Cruel Taskmasters (vv. 11*14);' They were placed under heavy bur dens.
