Part of: Samuel’s Preaching and Prophesies

• The Lord will curse the land so wicked people cannot find buried treasure.
• The Lord wants people to hide up treasures unto him, but the wicked do not.
• The treasures of the people will become a curse unto them.
• The people’s riches were once given by God, but their pride has turned them away from him.
• The people’s gratitude and humility evaporates with the accumulation of riches.
• The curse on the people, their riches, and the land, is in consequence to their pride and wickedness.
