You've got #2 & #4. My numbers are different on #3; but otherwise, it's right too. As for #1, I guess it's possible that my book doesn't list them all. So I might be in trouble here.

 

I should have said this from the beginning; but didn't know it until I looked it up: These are all in the Old Testament.

Are you looking in the Bible for the answers or do you have another source that you're are looking at?

Another source. But it seems to know what its talking about.

1. Elisha (with help from God) sent two bears to kill 42 children for making fun of his bald head. 2 Kings 2:22-23

 

2. Abimelech killed 69 of his brothers on a stone. Judges 9:5, BT

 

3. Doeg the Edomite killed 85 priests and all the men, women, children, infants, oxen, donkeys, and sheep with a sword. 1 Samuel 22:18-19, BT

 

4. Elijah (and God) burned to death 102 men. 2 Kings 1:10-12

 

5. David killed 200 Philistines to purchase his first wife with their foreskins. 1 Samuel 18:25-27, BT

 

6. Abishai killed 300 men with a spear. 2 Samuel 23:18, 1 Chronicles 11:20, BT

 

7. The chief of David's captains killed either 300 (1 Chronicles 11:11) or 800 (2 Samuel 23:8) men with a spear. (Sometimes it's hard to correctly count the number of dead bodies in a massacre.)

 

8. Elijah killed 450 religious leaders in a prayer contest. 1 Kings 18:22-40

(The total in this massacre may have been 850 if it included the priests of the groves.)

 

9. Shamgar killed 600 Philistines with an ox goad. Judges 3:31, BT

 

10. Samson killed 1000 men with the jawbone of a donkey. Judges 15: 14-15, BT

Nice work!! :ylsuper:

 

 

(You also had two [#'s 3 & 8] that my book didn't list.)

For the record, that total came to 2,613.

God killed a few with the rain shower.

 

Also the Egyptians didn't have a bridge. And also lost their first born Males.

 

These don't fit because there is no mention of how many.

 

Great job by the poster above me. :laugh:

And they also weren't by (or at the request of) a mortal.

I prayed earlier, I'm guessing god will get back at me later. As much as I'm intrigued by divine intervention, I really don't know if I want god to tell me the answers in person, maybe just a hint would be nice.

I said it was a good source....not a GOD source.

Birdsfan, did my two examples, post #8, make your list?

No, those are true; but they weren't on my list.

 

 

The book I'm using (to make me sound like I have a clue) is called Instant Genius: Fast Food For Thought. It was a gift from Rockmom...who knows I can use all the help I can get.
