You know this one. Kids make fun of Elisha for being bald, he curses them, two bears come out of the woods and maul forty-two of them. It’s the story people bring up when they want to make the Old Testament sound unhinged, and most of us don’t have anything to say back.
Turns out the Hebrew is a lot less neat and clean than the Sunday school version… in both directions. This one’s worth the listen.
