[11] THE LION.
Reading edition
[11] THE LION.
The Lion is one of the strongest and fiercest of wild beasts. The Bible says, “The righteous are bold as a lion.” But wicked men are strong also: the Psalmist prayed that God would “save him from the lion’s mouth.” You recollect about Daniel in the lions’ den;—God sent an angel and shut the lions’ mouths.
