1 | Anyone have thoughts about Jabez? | 1 Chr 4:9 | Hank | 35380 | ||
Torrey, I liked your post on the Jabez "fad" that continues to flourish, though I'm at a loss to understand just why. It's quite possible that about all Jabez wanted was more land, and he may have ended up owning Texas for all I know. What is even more certain is that the author and publisher of the Jabez books are having their pockets amply lined with greenbacks. Every time I visit a religious bookstore I see a new sequel on the shelves. There can be little question that the prayers of Jesus, His model prayer for his disciples (The Lord's Prayer) or his prayer in the garden, have far more didactic potential than the brief (dare we call it self-centered?) prayer of Jabez recorded in 1 Chron.4:10 and containing a mere 33 words. I'm toying with publishing an exposition on Cain's wife! What do you think of that? Do you think it will become a best-seller too? :-) --Hank | ||||||

LOL. It might Hank. A title is often the reason for why a book sells or doesn't. "Where did Cain Get His Wife"? Just might be a hot item. | ||||||
