Tuesday—What does the wilderness represent in the Bible? How is it a fitting picture of the Bible’s description of life in this world?

Wednesday—Why are the attackers said to work their wickedness “all day long”? Why are the enemies of God’s people able to oppress God’s children in broad daylight?
