Written by Sunday’s 14-alarm fire in Belleville, New Jersey, took out an entire block. Several dozen fire departments were needed to put out the blaze. Two firefighters were treated overnight for smoke inhalation and exhaustion, but, miraculously, no one else was hurt. Twenty hours after the fire broke out, smoke was still visible on Monday afternoon and the air quality wasn’t good. Mayor Michael Melham said the fire started in a mattress factory at 347 Cortlandt St., and spread to each side of the building.
Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.
