“As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.”
The image of escaping from a lion only to meet a bear or resting from weariness only to be bitten by a serpent indicates that escape from one form of danger only leads to another. The inevitability of danger suggests inescapable judgment.
