Or unknown beasts of a new kind, full of rage: either breathing out a fiery vapour, or sending forth a stinking smoke, or shooting horrible sparks out of their eyes ... the very sight might kill them through fear. Wisdom 11:19

Trivia: According to the Book of Wisdom, who were "eaters of men' s bowels, and devourers of blood"?

What did Jesus say you should you do if your right hand offends you?


Cut it off and throw it away.

(See also Matthew 18:8 and Mark 9:43) Matthew 9:43
And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. Matthew 9:43
