prev Phil Irish - 3 July 2000 next
Hi there.
The quiz just asked me how Saul died.  The program used 2 Samuel 21:12 to
claim that the Philistines killed Saul.  Of course, the detailed account at
1 Samuel 31:4 makes it clear that Saul killed himself to prevent the
Philistines from having that pleasure.  Ah: the beautiful complexity of the
sacred text!
... later that day ...
OK  -- I get it!  I just went back and looked at the site again.  Of course,
all of the questions have multiple answers.  This is very very nice.
Excellent!
Thanks.
