But also this is all mythology from the Bronze Age. So talking about Goliath's kit feels a bit like discussing the potency of hydra venom or the height of the World Tree.

Lol.

10 The disciples came up and asked, “Why do you tell stories?”

11-15 He replied, “You’ve been given insight into God’s kingdom. You know how it works. Not everybody has this gift, this insight; it hasn’t been given to them. Whenever someone has a ready heart for this, the insights and understandings flow freely. But if there is no readiness, any trace of receptivity soon disappears. That’s why I tell stories: to create readiness, to nudge the people toward a welcome awakening...

Nothing was meant to be taken literally. Ever. But you know how people who get power can be. 😋
