Holy shit that verse goes hard
Try the stories in Judges, thems were tough times and crazy stories. The Old Testament is especially metal because the Jesus story arc hadn't happened yet.
Judges 4:18-22 (NIV)
Jael went out to meet Sisera and said to him, “Come, my lord, come right in. Don’t be afraid.” So he entered her tent, and she covered him with a blanket.
“I’m thirsty,” he said. “Please give me some water.” She opened a skin of milk, gave him a drink, and covered him up.
“Stand in the doorway of the tent,” he told her. “If someone comes by and asks you, ‘Is anyone in there?’ say ‘No.’”
But Jael, Heber’s wife, picked up a tent peg and a hammer and went quietly to him while he lay fast asleep, exhausted. She drove the peg through his temple into the ground, and he died.
Just then Barak came by in pursuit of Sisera, and Jael went out to meet him. “Come,” she said, “I will show you the man you’re looking for.” So he went in with her, and there lay Sisera with the tent peg through his temple—dead.
TIL that a tent peg through the temple can be harmful, even fatal.
I think most things going through the temple are fatal.
True. Often the case with religion as well.
That tent peg was the last thing that went through his mind.
