Yessiree, Bob...I was sittin' there at the table depicted in the picture (without the beer) reading from Proverbs 27 and 28 while scarfin' down last night's leftover hot dog and beans casserole. MAN I LOVE SPICY FOOD ON DAY 2!! ;PWell, some questions came to mind from my readings and musings:
If "Iron sharpens iron, so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend," is that where the idea of a hatchet-face comes from?
When Job told God "there is no umpire between us" was he referring to being called out at home plate on an attempted slide?!! Or, considering God's last several chapters of questions, was Job the catcher and God just bowled him over for a home run?!!
Pv. 28:1 says, "The wicked flee when no one pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion." Would that be that lazy male who lets the female do all the gathering or the lioness who will mince you into big cat food for messing with her cubs?
"Faithful are the wounds of a friend, but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful." Who in the name of my great Aunt Lizzie's hair bun kisses his enemy or lets him kiss first?!! I'll bet the Fellowship of the Ring would let the Uruk-Kai smooch THEM!!
Maybe the answer to the last one is the guy mentioned in Pv. 26:18-19, "Like a madman who throws firebrands, arrows, and death, is the man who deceives his neighbor, and says, 'I was only joking!'"
Well, I'm mused out for the moment, God's in His Heaven, and Bob's Your Uncle.
Got other sayings?
