    Cantleave - Abraham was a twat of the lowest order too. Telling Pharoah that his wife was his sister then that imaginary foul-arsed god punished Pharoah....I mean wah????

    Blondie - Agreed

    Comatose - Yes. I never understood why a god of love (who doesn't exist), murdered Achan's family for Achan's theft.

    mP -

    A better way of phrasing the q are there any characters in the OT that are mentioned more than once or twice informally that are actually nice or kind ?

    S'pose so...but there must be some idiots in the NT too like Paul, that cantleave mentioned.

    WMF - Indeed.

    Telling Pharoah that his wife was his sister

    Sarah was his sister and his wife at the same time.! Abraham wasnot lying but he was cunning and its strange how Jehovah didnt step in early to help his "friend".

    look up genesis. ask if you want the scirpture its easy to google for anyway.

    Sarah was the wife of Abraham, as well as being his half-sister, the daughter of his father Terah (Genesis 20:12). The Talmud [2] iden

    Jehovah comes to mind, for example whenever someone gave his ( chosen People ) trouble or hassle he would kill not the people involved,

    he would kill their first borns who were innocent of any wrong doing.

    My vote is for 'righteous' King David; others were maybe worse, but they also are not constantly pushed in our faces by the WT as being in the line of the Messiah, and forgiven by God for some good reason.

    The guy who was so in love with his runaway concubine that he traveled some distance from his home to retrieve her then the next day threw her out to a crowd who raped her until she was dead. Then he dismembered her body and distributed the pieces around the country, inciting a civil war that nearly wiped out an entire tribe of Israel.

    Don't forget Solomon.

    God gives that ungrateful bastard everything. David's family literally kills each other so this guy can be king, God gives him the wisdom he needs and riches beyond compare. What does he do?

    He gets hundreds and hundreds of women, so that he can bed (several) different ones each and every frigging night, and lets his penis lead him away from serving properly.

    Wait.......

    Nevermind......

    If I had a choice between serving that "Jehovah" and bedding several different women every night of my life, the only thing I would be sorry about is that Viagara doesn't exist yet. Make Solomon a good guy instead. One of the early guys in the Bible to have it all and still say

    How about Cain and Abel. Cain for hating his younger brother and murdering him because the sky daddy liked him better.

    Then there is Jacob's family. Jacob for showing blatant favoritism to his youngest child, Joseph. Joseph's brothers, who gang up on him and sell him to some passing slavers, then bring his fancy jacket back to their father covered with blood as proof he was dead.

    Photiphar's wife for lusting after a young boy (Joseph) and trying to rape him. Then lying and having him falsely imprisoned.

    correction Punk .. jehovah can be included because you want bible characters.. and he is a character in the bible..

    he gets my vote .. told his people not to steal, kill, or covet.... then tells them to covet neighbors land, kill everyone in it, and steal it..

    if he want them to have a land flowing with milk and honey, why not make the dessert bloom with his great magic powers..
