YOHK
This thing shows up in Deuteronomy 28:48: “therefore you will serve your enemies whom Yahweh sends against you, in hunger, in thirst, in nakedness, and in lack of all things. He…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Deuteronomy 28:48
“therefore you will serve your enemies whom Yahweh sends against you, in hunger, in thirst, in nakedness, and in lack of all things. He will put an iron yoke on your neck, until he has destroyed you.”
