This is so babies

1) I think our Sunday School mostly skipped over the fact that the Canaanites were motherfuckin’ giants.  Either that, or that very awesome-sounding fact tragically wasn’t repeated as much as the other stuff.  So I double-checked Numbers 13:

31 But the men who had gone up with him said, “We can’t attack those people; they are stronger than we are.” 32 And they spread among the Israelites a bad report about the land they had explored. They said, “The land we explored devours those living in it. All the people we saw there are of great size. 33 We saw the Nephilim there (the descendants of Anak come from the Nephilim). We seemed like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and we looked the same to them.”

So apparently the “they’re giants” thing was a lie the scouts told ‘cuz they were scared.  Yet rendered canon within the Picture Bible!

2) That panel with Joshua and Caleb carrying the grapes cracks me up.  I think it’s their giddy smiles. Motherfuckin’ GRAPES, everyone!  Let’s do a twirl on the catwalk.

3) So, of course, they’re going to murder all of these giants and take their stuff.  Our heroes!  The Israelites aren’t too big on sharing.
