“The Whole Staff of Bread and the Whole Stay of Water”

D. Kelly Ogden, Andrew C. Skinner

Economic prosperity is gone. Bread and water are both literal and symbolic, as Amos explained: “Not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord” (Amos 8:11). Leadership is also gone, with only incompetent leaders left.
