Nahor's two eldest sons were named Huz and Buz- Gen.22:20,21

Good thing that's a poetic figure of speech.

Another name for it, probably not too helpful, is galbanum gum. This figure is to teach us that our prayers are acceptable to God only through the righteousness of Christ and His work for us in the heavenly sanctuary.

Ezekiel 44: 23 contains the idea and explanation for this as well as for almost everything connected with the sanctuary services: the holiness and righteousness of God. "[The priests] should teach My people the difference beetween what is holy and unholy and show them how to distinguish between the unclean and the clean."
A recurring theme is, "Be My holy people because I the Lord am holy and have separated you from other people to be Mine." Le. 20: 26.

I sure appreciate the feedback!

The new earth won't have any oceans- Rev.21:1

Once Ezekiel was sitting in his house when a big hand picked him up by the hair of his head and took him somewhere between heaven and earth. Ezekiel 8:3

That must have been one hairy experience. Hope he didn't lose any hair over the heavenly encounter.

Jochebed, Moses' mother, married Amram, Moses' father, who was her nephew. Does that make Moses and Amram cousins? Exodus 6:20

Oh, my goodness, Gail!! Where do you come up with this stuff, anyway? Not that I am complaining, you understand. By 21th Century American reckoning, I guess Moses, Aaron, and Miriam could be technically considered cousins, However, they WERE siblilngs!!

Morning Glory

Some of these things make me run to my Bible to see if it's REALLY there! I've read the Bible through a couple of times in my life from end to end and some of these facts are STILL new to me!

Will do! (If I find something weird, lol)
