1 Kings 13:34: Was it a sin in Nehafs son

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)

Religion

Was it a sin in Nehafs son,
A sin which all his house destroy'd,
(What safely may by us be done)
To make Divine appointments void?
Fearless oi Jeroboam'' s fate
Shall men without commission dare
Priests from the crowd to consecrate.
And place them in the' apostle's chair?
