1 Chronicles chapter 4 is a really funny chapter. In fact, it's absolutely hysterical if you read it late at night in a silly mood. This we discovered last night as we read our daily Bible chapter together. It started off in verse 3 with the most priceless name I can recall in recent history: Hazelelponi. Michael pronounced this as 'Has-a-lil'-pony,' and we both erupted into laughter. Throughout the rest of the chapter one of us would suddenly think of the name, and start laughing again until the tears came to our eyes. Then there was Coz. Inspired by our spoiled little rich girl whose daddy bought her a pony, I giggled, 'Why did his mother name him that? Just Coz!' Ha ha ha! Er, of course, we had already met in Genesis, but I had never noticed before how stammery his name sounded. Next we met 'Just jokin' Jokim, who lived 'among plants and hedges' (toadstools maybe?) Ah, me, and I thought 1 Chronicles 4 was all about Jabez.
