Hab 1:13 | MHM | STEP | v. 13 : Habakkuk says that God’s eyes are too pure to look on evil, and He cannot approve of wrongdoing. Yet, Habakkuk is troubled because God seems to remain silent while wicked people devour those who are more righteous than themselves. He wonders why God allows the Babylonians to punish Israel, even though Israel’s sins are bad, the Babylonians are even worse.
