What does it mean to "bless" something?

RE: What does it mean to "bless" something? [Oi, Dritch]
Quote:The bible is not full of useless crap

Genesis 36:12 Of what possible use is it to anyone to know that Timna was concubine to Eliphaz?

Numbers 3:17 What use can one make of the information that Gershon, Kohath and Merari were the sons of Levi?

Joshua 13:1 'Now Joshua was old and stricken in years; and the LORD said unto him, Thou art old and stricken in years'. Isn't the Lord saying what has just been said pretty much useless and redundant?

1 Chronicles 1-54 is a completely useless (and mind-numbingly dull) geneaology.

2 Chronicles spends an awful lot of text describing the mythical temple of Solomon. Strikes me as useless crap, almost by defintion.

Almost the entire fourth chapter of Nehemiah concerns the building of a wall. A wall. It doesn't even tell you HOW to build a wall, just that a wall was built.

Matthew and Luke both contain false (and therefore useless) geneaologies of Jesus.

So, the Bible may not be 'full' in the perfect sense of the word, of useless crap, but there's plenty of it to be had.
