Augustine and the City of God I.3
Are societies built on wish dreams or divine reality? Juno bore Mars the God of War and destruction out of pity and anger. Panthus the Trojan Elder watched the ungodly birth: he was covered by the birth of Mars and the splattering of red crimson onto white sheets, and he shivered out of deep fear.
Be broken you peoples, and be shattered;
give ear all your far countries; strap on your armor and be shattered.
Take counsel together, but it will come to nothing;
speak a word, but it will not stand, for God is with us.
- Isaiah 7:9-10
give ear all your far countries; strap on your armor and be shattered.
Take counsel together, but it will come to nothing;
speak a word, but it will not stand, for God is with us.
