Here are some comments, or rather mostly a proof reading report...
Philistines Try to Keep Weapons Out of Hands of Israelites
Uhm, you should do a control count on that math exercise about thirds of
shekels...
Slaughter of the Philistines
1 Samuel 14:20-21: Hmm, so shall we interpret those funky Philistine hairpieces
as hats or wigs or something...? In any case it’s a pretty funny detail.
Jonathan Is Cursed
What’s that gray wall in the background of the forest, and why is it there?
War on
All Sides
The headline in the story itself says “Slaughter of the Ammonites”.
Kings of Zobah: that’s a funny little extremely literal interpretation there.
I found another little error elsewhere in the BT:
In the Judges story “Slaughter of the Ammonites” (not to be confused with the
homonymic Saul story) there is a scene which says “But the king of the Ammorites
didn’t listen...” You have misspelled Ammonites there as “Ammorites”, which
makes it a bit confusing since it’s in the story where the king of the Ammonites
has ben bad to the Israelites who lived in the land of the Amorites, and this
Ammonite king accuses the Israelites of taking his land, but they answer that
they didn’t take the land of the Ammonites but the land of the Amorites. It
seems that the verse number is wrong too; it should be Judges 11:28.

| (...) Always appreciated! (...) Ouch. Math was never my best subject. Fixed now though. I think. Let's see: 2/3 + 2/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 = 2. Maybe the Philistine was just trying to take advantage of an Israelite whose ability to add fractions is as poor (...) (18 years ago, 29-Nov-06, to lugnet.build.ancient, FTX)
