The Sin of Presumption
The leaders' boast, "tomorrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant," reveals a dangerous presumption upon God's patience. Commentators explain this isn't just party planning; it's a defiant belief that they can continue in sin without consequence. They mistake God's silence for His approval, hardening their hearts and guaranteeing future indulgence. This serves as a warning against assuming our current comfort means God condones our lifestyle.
