شرح للأطفال
Imagine a parent telling a child to drink a big glass of juice that will make them feel very dizzy and sick. The parent isn't really asking them to drink a drink, but warning them that bad things are coming because of their naughty behavior. God is using this to warn the people about the bad things that will happen.
