swords into ploughshares

From the first reading for Advent Sunday:

And he shall judge the Gentiles, and rebuke many people: and they shall turn their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into sickles: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they be exercised any more to war. — Isaias ii. 4. (DRC)

scene from a quadruple lancet window 1949. Church of the Covenant [Presby] Cleveland.

I have noticed some of my older posts have had their formatting changed. I generally post fotos in blogger's large version, they have been made medium, or small. The text copy has had paragraph structure eliminated.
