Not like when that dead guy’s body was chucked in Prophet Elisha’s grave and he came back to life again.

Woooo. Bones. Biblical.


Yeah, Elisha’s bones were in HIS GRAVE.

It’s not like they were gilding and blinging them with precious metals and stones. Pagans claiming Christianity didn’t carry Elisha’s bones around, bow to them nor kiss them.

If I saw a dead man brought back to life by contact with the holy bones of God's Prophet Elisha, I do believe I'd be Godfearing enough to show some respect for those bones. They're as worthy of veneration as the sacred objects --- the Tablets of the Ten Commandments, Aaron's rod, the jar of manna, and the Torah scroll--- which were put in the Ark of the Covenant. Plated with gold, by the way, and with statues of gold cherubim. (Insert the word "bling" where appropriate.)

Some might just want to throw Elisha's bones in a pit. That wouldn't be me.
