Rizpah's Sacloth

Why is it evil? At Church today, my pastor taught a mother's day lesson and used Rizpah as a positive example. When you read the story, she inspired David to bury the bones of Jonathan and Saul. I don't see how this should be an evil card...

Likely because the Sackcloth is something of a symbol for suffering.

Rizpah was good.  Her sackcloth covered so many who had died.  :(

Hence, everyone dies when this card is played.  Of course she didn't CAUSE all the death, she just covered them.

Similarly, the Destruction of Nehushtan was a good thing.  It was just sad that it had to happen.  Therefore, it was an evil card.
