Question

In 2 Samuel, a famine ends after the concubine Rizpah inspires David to request some of these objects from the Gibeonites. The Book of Proverbs contrasts the “sound heart” with envy, which it calls the “rottenness” of these objects. In Genesis, Joseph dies just after asking the sons of Israel to swear an oath regarding these objects, which is later fulfilled by Moses. Jeremiah describes the word of God as (*) “fire shut up” in these objects. In another book of the Old Testament, God rhetorically asks, “Son of Man, shall” these objects “live?”, before summoning four winds. Samson kills a thousand Philistines with one of these (10[3])objects taken from an ass. For 10 points, Ezekiel has a vision of a “valley” full of what kind of objects, one of which was taken from Adam to create Eve? ■END■
