Intriguing
– Ruth, a book of 4 small chapters has 18 usages; Nehemiah – 17; Daniel only 8
(new beginnings); and Obadiah, 1 small chapter (21 verses total) has 6
references. First usage:
Gen
2:4 These are the generations of the heavens and of
the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the
earth and the heavens,
Last
usage:
Mal 4:5
Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before
the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD.
Middle
– (6521/2 = 3260.5) based upon current OT book order:
1Ch 15:29 And it came to pass, as the ark of the covenant of
the LORD came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul
looking out at a window saw king David dancing and playing: and she despised
him in her heart.
Or depending on how
you want to divide the .5.
1Ch 16:2 And when David had
made an end of offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed
the people in the name of the LORD.
And caving into my
OCD…I ‘had’ to number the books – the middle based upon Original Bible
Order would be 2 Kings (since 1 and 2 Chronicles is at the end). For those who don’t think it matters, try
reading the Bible in the original order and see if there’s not a noticeable difference
in flow.
But I digress –
interestingly by numbering the books, I discovered 3 which did not have Lord –
H3068. And because…I had to double
check. J
Esther – No usage of
H3068, or H430 (God).
Ecclesiastes – No usage
of H3068, however a search for God netted H430 (40x).
Song of Solomon - No usage
of H3068, or H430 (God).
That’s pretty
intriguing – no mention at all? Hmmm…I’ll
definitely need to reread those books and pay better attention!
