Thematic Bible: Like the sin of belshazzar it may be done under the influence of strong drink


Thematic Bible



Tekel, thou art weighed in the balance, and art found wanting:

King Belshazzar made a great banquet to his thousand lords: with all these thousand he made great cheer, and when he was drunken with wine, he commanded to bring him the golden and silver vessels, which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple at Jerusalem: that the king and his lords with his queen and concubines might drink thereout.
