Those Romans who overthrew him did not understand the root of his madness, but the Christians who suffered under his reign did. Nero’s madness was sin. A rival kingdom was established just prior to Nero’s reign. At the time of the event, it was announced to shepherds by angels. Some centuries earlier, it was declared that this kingdom, and more particularly, this King, would break the nations with a rod of iron and dash His enemies to pieces like clay pottery. It was in this manner that Psalm 2 proclaims Christ’s Incarnation as a declaration of God’s triumph over His enemies.\" \u003cstrong\u003e-From the Introduction by Ben House\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e—\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJacob Abbott\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e was an American writer of children's books.
