Ahhh...OK. I thought that that sounded King James-ish, but when I was looking in 25:21, I just couldn't find it. I haven't gotten myself a Holman yet.

Hi, David. (...) First of all, thanks for bringing this verse to my attention because I apparently mislabeled it as 1 Samuel 25:21 when it is actually 1 Samuel 25:22.

Interesting that Saul traveled all the way to Endor to speak to a necromancer. Is that an ewok pelt I see in the background? (17 years ago, 9-Sep-07, to lugnet.build.ancient, FTX)

Awesome work as always Brendan. Interesting way to use hinge bricks for minifigs, it's surprising you didn't do so earlier (as far as I remember).

Hey Brendan, Another great outing. Pin the spear on the minstrel - I like the inset pillars on the wall of Saul's main hall. Also, the spear decoration is a nice idea, but I'm not 100% on the execution. I wish the clips for the third and fifth (...) (17 years ago, 6-Jul-07, to lugnet.build.ancient, FTX)
