I love the story of Isaac. I love the stories of Abraham. I love the patriarchs, basically, all of them. Do you have a favorite? The favorite bit of the Bible is David's lament for Jonathan. Publish it not in the streets of Gath, for how are the mighty fallen? And I absolutely, I think that's the most beautiful poetry in the Bible. Maybe the greatest poetry ever written.
