no thanks.

when people grow up in the Church, they tend to read the same passages over and over again.

we know the stories. we know the verses.

and somehow...we miss things.

i'm not just talking about spiritual or insightful things, although we do kind of suck in that department at times.

i was reading some exodus today. when you hear the name "moses" what do you think of?

baby in a basket.
prince of egypt.
10 plagues.
let my people go.

well, check out his heritage:

exodus 6:20
Amram married his father's sister Jochebed, who bore him Aaron and Moses. Amram lived 137 years.


that's kinda...

um...

gross.

i'm just hoping they were about the same age. you know how those Israelites were...(?) your brother could be 70 when you were 5, so maybe, MAYBE...they were close in age. but still. dude. that's your aunt.

and that's how we got moses.

God has some strange ways.

allison's biblical commentary. do you think it would sell?
