It inspired me to look at the craziest bible names, theres a google hit with the top 16 if you search. Mash (accidently sacrifices a baby to god thinking it was a chicken! seriously?), Uz, Hul, Gether, fucking Dodo! Ha, that is quality.
Chalcol, Zebedee, Ham, Gad oh my, it actually makes me laugh out loud sat on my own which is very unusual. I know what to do for a pick me up in future, credit where it's due, those bible writers really did have a sense of humour.
Wait, Maher-shalal-hash-baz. Fucking quality, its like some names my kids make up when they write stories.
I can just imagine them sat there running out of bible names and making shit up.
Writer 1: Oh I don't know then, how about we call him Zebedee?
Writer 2: Nope, already used that. Father of James and John in Matthew. Don't you remember?
Writer 1: No fucking way! How could someone else think of that shit? OK, I'm going real hardcore this time. I'll call him....erm....Maher........Shalal......Hash. And fuck it Bash at the end, that's catchy, they'll love that one.
Writer 2: Nope, we've defo not used that one yet. What are you smoking? Pass it over.
