Nov. 6, 2005 - Naughty Figs

To laugh or not to laugh, that is the question:

One basket had very good figs, [...] and the other basket had very naughty figs, which could not be eaten they were so bad.

Seriously, that is quote from the KJV. Ruth was reading, and I thought she had gone on a rabbit trail or something. We all were laughing at the 'naughty fig(lets)'.

Anyways. They say to make short and interesting posts. Did I succeed. Time will tell. :)

Post A Comment!

LOL! Some things in the KJV sound really strange, at least to us. I guess when they translated it it was normal to speak that way? One that gets us (me and my siblings) laughing is when Martha tells Jesus that Lazarus "stinketh." Strange... but maybe we're the ones who are strange. ;)

Anyway! I like your layout on here. :)

Hey! you said to comment, so here's your comment ;-).

I read that passage you mentioned recently... I read NASB, I think it might have just called them "very bad figs" I don't remember and don't have a bible handy. Anyway.

Why am I doing this? Oh yeah, cause you said you wanted it to look like you had frineds. Okay, so, um, why am I here? lol

Did you put lemon juice on that apple so it wouldn't color while you ate the other parts? Sorry, that's sort of a dumb question but I've been wondering ever since you got that pic how you did it.

LOL! If I've read that before, I must have been asleep. But I don't think I've ever read the whole of Jeremiah.
Anyway, that is hilarious. : ) I guess I should make time to check out this blog more often... you seem to post a fair bit un-crossposted.
