 Just at that moment, the wire-towing Hauser snapped. The broken parts of it whipped around like a maddened steel snake. If any man had been struck by it, he would have been killed instantly. But the whole crew automatically obeyed, and nobody was injured. If anyone would have stopped to argue or to ask why, he would have been a dead man. Obedience saved lives. Jesus demands that kind of obedience.
