Samuel 1

Haven't bibbled for a while, partly because I was anticipating that this would be something of a trudge. It's splendid though, featuring David and Goliath, a witch raising somebody from the dead, and a preoccupation with bodily discomfort - foreskins used to buy a wife, enemies inflicted with haemorrhoids and men who "pisseth against the wall". Pisseth!

Genocidal mania gets its usual look in too:

15:3 Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.

Too right, God! No mercy to those suckling infants!
