Basil Wolverton

THE "NEW MORALITY", THE old man, who had invited the three strangers to spend the night at his home in Gibeah, was pulled outside by hoodlums. They demanded that he send out the Levite guest. The old fellow shook his head in fear and disbelief when he realized what these vile men wanted to do. (Judges 19:16-22.) Willing to Compromise. "Please go away and leave us alone!" he pleaded. "This Levite is my guest along with his wife and servant! It would be a terrible disgrace to let anything happen to him at my home. Surely you can find your pleasure elsewhere!" The old man was very concerned about his reputation. But he was much less concerned about the drift into the decaying morality of that time. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
