Gary Thompson comments:
"What happens next is that some kids come along and tell him "Go up, thou
bald head," and Elisha sics some 42 bears on 'em (the bears get one each).
One of Mark Twain's favorite Biblical anecdotes.
Check it out in 2 Kings 2:9-14 (chariots of fire) and 2:23-24. (I cheated
and looked it up--don't remember passages from 30 years ago.)
 
Not really the sort of Jehovah the TV preachers are fond of mentioning."


Depends on the preacher, doesn't it?  Schuller, of course not.  Falwell, maybe.
Community-Access, definitely!
