Religion / Book for Sunday School teachers | | English term or phrase: wars would be banished | Covetousness and greed are the cause of so much oppression and pain in this world. The strong take advantage of the weak to feed their unquenchable thirst for more and more (Micah 2.2). Nations go to war to gain territory and possessions by force. Even children often behave in a spiteful and violent way to get what they want. Unbelievers like to blame God for wars and suffering, but if only they would keep this commandment not to covet, ***wars would be banished***.
Would they disappear or be prohibited? |

In this case, disappear, or cease to happen, though "banish" can often have an element of compulsion about it. |
