Old and New

In today’s Old Testament reading (2 Kings 9.17-end) we discover the ancient equivalent of someone who loves Top Gear: Jehu son of Nimshi; “for he drives like a maniac.”
We also read one of the earliest examples of dissing someone with a ‘your mother’ put down.
The mother in question – Jezebel – comes to a sticky end. Literally.

About Stratocastermagic

Born in 1959. I'm married with grown-up kids and some grandchildren, and I'm a priest in the Church of England. I play guitar: I have a Fender Stratocaster and a Gibson Les Paul. And a Washburn​ EA40 electro-acoustic, and a Django-style guitar by Mateos, and a couple of ukuleles. I like the idea of being Professor of Cartoon Physics.
