And there's some stupid obvious ones -- "And a poor man is better than a liar." for example. But I liked "House and riches are an inheritance from fathers; But a prudent wife is from Jehovah." and so did my wife for some reason.

Moving right along backwards, we get to the OT reading -- we're in Leviticus! Charming. So far it's just Sacrificing 101: "and the priest shall burn the whole on the altar, for a burnt-offering, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savor unto Jehovah." Is that what a burnt-offering is? An offering made by fire? Wow!

And provision is made for feeding the priests -- " and he shall take thereout his handful of the fine flour thereof ... and the priest shall burn it .... and that which is left of the meal-offering shall be Aaron's and his sons' ". Not a bad line of business to be a barbarian priest. Sit around all day in your ephod with your carbuncled breastplate of righteousness eating other peoples' flour.

Apparently the Israelites had frying pans. Who knew?

Matthew 8:14-34. Jesus sends the demons ("and their name was legion") into the swine. I've always wondered what the swine-owner thought about that one. I guess even if he wanted to bring a civil suit, he was drowned out by the multitudes "and when they saw him, they besought [him] that he would depart from their borders."

Oh, yeah, and the outside world can bite me. Apparently someone's getting killed in Florida or something? Whatever.

UPDATE: Reading yesterday's now. This jumped out at me: Exodus 39:34 "and the covering of rams' skins dyed red, and the covering of sealskins, and the veil of the screen". Where the fuck did they get a sealskin in Israel?
