The next person addressed is David, the King of Israel who was prolific in more as a breeder as well as a ruler. 20 sons in all that were recorded but of course no mention of the daughters (other than Tamar) that he may have spawned. There may have been more with his "secondary" wives. After that are the kings of Judah - Solomon and his sons, and the royal family after the exile and the Babylonian captivity. The lineage of Judah was interesting because from there we see the familiar names of the lineage of Christ - Perez and Jabez from whom his prayer became the basis of a best selling book.
All in all, a decent weekend with much accomplished outside. Finally (with David) laid down some mulch and pruned some trees and growth around the house and deck and did some insect spraying. Cranked up the grill for the first time this year and David and I got the power washer to work and hopefully will use it over the next few weeks. Today, I am pumped to see my first minor league game this season with the temps going to the mid to high 80s and it's dollar dog night!
Praise for today: Clap your hands, all you nations, shout to God with cries of joy. Ps 47:1
