Interesting you should bring up shibboleth. For those who don't know
it's in Judges 12, verses 1-6. Seems 42,000 people died that day but
probably not all because they could not say shibboleth. They were
saying sibboleth, leaving out the first h.


Yeah, YHWH is one nasty ****er. According to one Bible translation, he
killed 70,000 people because they didn't sufficiently rejoice when they
heard His Name. Strange thing is, most Jews I've met have been much
nicer than their god.
