I am reading a book about the history of the oil industry and this scripture was telegraphed as a prearranged signal by a predecessor company of British Petroleum that a well they were drilling in what is now Iran was successful.

And that brings to mind another verse:<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><sup style=\"background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; vertical-align: top;\">16&nbsp;<\/sup><span style=\"background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\">\u201cBehold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves.
