Walking the dog

I was walking Moose, the dog, today. I'm not a pet person, how did this creature make his way into my life? (Oh, yeah, the daughter has a tender heart for all things that require cleaning up their poop.) Anyway, every walk for Moose is a grand exploration - he's the canine Lewis and Clark. But I noticed that when he sniffed something that he found especially interesting, he stiffened all four legs to avoid being pulled away from it and got so excited he just quivered all over.


So, that's my new barometer: what in my life causes a Moose-like reaction? Family (great husband and fabulous, creative, passionate kids), the chance to explore (cities, food, books, music, art) are at the top of the list....and we'll see what else gets added.....

Debbie, I want to make a correction in your Judges pages that discuss each judge and, finally, at the last, Abimelech.

What I wanted to bring to your attention is the discussion on Othniel. You state that Othniel is Caleb's younger brother (Judges 3:9-11). However, that verse states that "When the children of Israel cried out to the Lord, the Lord raised up a deliverer for the children of Israel: Othniel, the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother. It is also stated in Joshua 15:17: So Othniel, the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb took it..."

Kenaz was Caleb's brother: Othniel his nephew.
