oddly enough

I keep forgetting to share this...

You know the overused and somewhat offensive phrase "kick his butt"?

Guess what. It came from the Bible!

Psa 78:65 Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep, and like a mighty man that shouteth by reason of wine.
Psa 78:66 And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts: he put them to a perpetual reproach.

There is nothing new under the sun, it seems.

And I love how the psalmist chose as his simile to compare the good Lord to a shouting drunken man: "like a mighty man that shouteth by reason of wine." :-)
