I love finding those little gems in the Bible, those crazy moments of history. And the strangely random facts, which just make me smile. For example, Jehu's crazy driving. One of the best. there are so many, but here are a few.


Ehud, the James Bond of the Bible
(Judges 3:15-26)


Jehu, the crazy driver
2 Kings 9:20

'The lookout reported, "He has reached them, but he isn't coming back either. The driving is like that of Jehu son of Nimshi—he drives like a madman." ' (love it!)

Shadrach and friends

Daniel 3 (Okay, so it's not ignored, everybody knows about the fiery furnace, but it's SO cool! I think sometimes we take these miracles for granted. They were thrown into a fire so hot that their executioners died from the heat! And not a hair on their heads was singed!! Not a single hair! The Bible even says they didn't smell like fire. they didn't even SMELL! THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!!!)

Joshua (and the sun standing still)

Joshua 10:12-14

^"12 On the day the LORD gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the LORD in the presence of Israel:
"O sun, stand still over Gibeon,
O moon, over the Valley of Aijalon."

¹³ So the sun stood still,
and the moon stopped,
till the nation avenged itself on its enemies,
as it is written in the Book of Jashar.
The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day. ¹⁴ There has never been a day like it before or since, a day when the LORD listened to a man. Surely the LORD was fighting for Israel! "
