Must be, because the mail stops at his shoulders.

Judas opted for the ‘Smoking’ section.

Must run in that family!

Amazing what will come back to mind on any given day, just in starting off with a little joke. And then like Buzz Lightyear, it will "go beyond".

Mail.

1 Samuel 17
38 And Saul armed David with his armour, and he put an helmet of brass upon his head; also he armed him with a coat of mail.
39 And David girded his sword upon his armour, and he assayed to go; for he had not proved it. And David said unto Saul, I cannot go with these; for I have not proved them. And David put them off him.

David [דוד, 14]... put on the whole armor of God!

This is a great revelation because in Hebrew, a postcard is a gluya [גְּלוּיָה].

The root is revelation, discovery (as you can see from that link).

Klein's:

גְּלוּיָה f.n. NH postcard. [Properly f. pass. part. of Biblical Heb. גָּלָה (= he uncovered, revealed). See גלה.]

A postcard is the open/revealed writing that flies right through the mail. Kind of like, "How often do you really look at a man's shoes?"

Yet on the other side, who doesn't enjoy receiving a postcard from a friend who's away on a long journey? Where's he at now? Of course, like looking up at a star or galaxy far, far away -- by the time you see it, it's somewhere else. All part of the fun and surprise.

The scenic messages are attention-getters (or not), like a special sign about something big that already happened:

"Discover the story. Embrace the connection."

Glad you are. Remaining are three artists, with a twist: Benjamin West, Rick Wienecke, and then twelve threads on Tissot.

And then a wholly new series, Women in the Bible.

For me, that's very much like these adventuressays of yours with which you pop up and bless me occasionally: always a joy to unpack!

By the way, how I envy your seeming mastery of the biblical languages and, indeed, of the Bible itself. It bespeaks the enormity of the effort you have devoted to it. God hasn't called me to a similar pursuit, but I can certainly appreciate seeing it in others.

Hello Dan, and a day of joy to all!

LC Tiffany produces stunning works indeed. No style of painting can match the play of light thru glass, as the light changes during the day.

“the method of painting in enamels or glass paint on colorless glass”

Does anyone know what “glass paint” is?

Thank You Dan!
