Jabez: Conceived in Pain, Delivered in Victory

Jabez is heartbroken at his loss, and cries out in his anguish, "Why? Why? Why?" The cry is echoed from the face of the rocks and pierces his soul with its sound. The survivors from the massacre are escorted back to the village. The remnants of the village prepare the bodies of their loved ones for burial. Who presides over the burials? Who stands in for the children who have lost both father and mother? Who helps Jabez prepare the bodies of his family? (Chapters 45 & 46)
