Favorite Biblical Scene

[Phantom_Poster]

My favorite image from the Bible, the scene that I get the biggest kick out of, is Judges when Samson kills...what is it 100 guards? with the jaw-bone of an ass.....

That is just so radically hardcore....that is insane. A man, takes the jaw-bone of a dead donky, and kills 100 men with it....can you imagin how hard it would be to kill just one man with a donky jaw-bone? Just stop and imagin the reality of that. Beating and cutting and pummleing another man with a dried, splintery skull-half until he was dead.....that's graphic isn't it? Samson did it to 100 guys.....at at the same time it can be assumed. What an utter blood bath...

The scene is really kinda silly, and there is no way it could have happened, the jaw bone would have broken before too long....but if you really believe that the bible is literaly true....then that story is just absurdly brutal.

It's a good one, how about this one:

2Ki 6:12-17 NKJV And one of his servants said, "None, my lord, O king; but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your bedroom." (13) So he said, "Go and see where he is, that I may send and get him." And it was told him, saying, "Surely he is in Dothan." (14) Therefore he sent horses and chariots and a great army there, and they came by night and surrounded the city. (15) And when the servant of the man of God arose early and went out, there was an army, surrounding the city with horses and chariots. And his servant said to him, "Alas, my master! What shall we do?" (16) So he answered, "Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them." (17) And Elisha prayed, and said, "LORD, I pray, open his eyes that he may see." Then the LORD opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw. And behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.

Can anyone read the entire saga, come to this line, and not tear up?

Genesis 45:3. And Joseph said to his brothers, "I am Joseph. Is my father still alive?"
