ST. PAUL’S FIRST LETTER TO THE CORINTHIANS 10:5-12
Brethren, God was not pleased with most of the fathers; for they were overthrown in the wilderness. Now these things are warnings for us, not to desire evil as they did. Do not be idolators as some of them were; as it is written, “The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up…
