My mind went straight to Jael (do not pass go, do not collect $200). Joining Michael in needing to read Judith. In the Apocrypha?

Yep! I almost forgot that it’s not included in some Bibles, so I thought I should clarify at the end!

I have GOT to read Judith now; I thought you were basing it off Jael from the book for Judges. This was brilliant.

Thank you so much, Michael! Judith and Jael are really similar - there seems to be a little niche genre of Old Testament stories in which Jewish women kill power-hungry invaders.

Really enjoyed that one! Judith is my favourite part of the Apocrypha.
