Thats an interesting factoid about cats. Jesus seems like a dog guy anyway.

The 3 Magi or Wise Men and their gifts:-- Melchoir (means king of light) offered Gold; Gaspar (means the white one) offered Frankincense (Frankincense is a gum resin used as a base for incense); and Balthazar (means lord of treasures) offered Myrrh (Myrrh is a gum resin, was valued as a perfume and unguent used in embalming).

Where does it say there were only three Magi?

The two robbers crucified next to Jesus were named Dismas and Gestas.

Where in the Bible does it say that?

"The only domestic animal not mentioned in the Bible is the cat. "



More proof that these vile creatures are the spawn of Satan!

Gabriel, Michael, and Lucifer are the three angels mentioned by name in the Bible

You forgot one -- Harold. As in hark the Harold Angel sings. :)

Almonds and pistachios are the only nuts mentioned in the Bible.

I don't know -- King Saul seemed pretty nuts to me. :)

" Voltaire, the French philosopher was an ethist, threatened that he will see to the destruction of the Bible and its removal from the face of the earth. " ...... this is something that the Muslims, liberals, feminist, gays , all have in common.

For what is worth, there are many, many words (mostly proper nouns) that appear only once in the King James Version of the Bible. For instance, I believe that "slimepits" only appears once:

		Slimepits
	Genesis 14:10	And the vale of Siddim was full of slimepits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there; and they that remained fled to the mountain.

The word "millions" also appears to appear once in the King James Version:

		Millions
	Genesis 24:60	And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her, Thou art our sister, be thou the mother of thousands of millions, and let thy seed possess the gate of those which hate them.

As does the word "spicery":

		Spicery
	Genesis 37:25	And they sat down to eat bread: and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and, behold, a company of Ishmeelites came from Gilead with their camels bearing spicery and balm and myrrh, going to carry it down to Egypt.

Even "hazel" is only found once:

		Hazel
	Genesis 30:37	And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the hazel and chesnut tree; and pilled white strakes in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods.

Most Comforting Chapters -- Psalms 23, John: 14.

I'm partial to Psalm 73 myself.

How interesting. I have never heard the names of the two on the cross with Jesus before.

[xachthegreat]

I found this facinating; where does it say the names of the criminals who were crucified; I'm almost positive that the Bible never names them.

Are the names just traditional?

Timothy 1:7 -- For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.
