Bible Question (short): why did Daniel want 240 Hebrew foreskins |
Question (full): In a sermon last week, our pastor mentioned Daniel and the fact that as a bride price he required 240 Hebrew foreskins. Why?? What could the purpose have been and what could he have done with them? I don't remember the passage that this was pulled from. Can anyone help me with this question? God's blessings. |
