Could it be... the lady in the passage of Acts 9:36-41... a pious Christian widow at Joppa whom Peter restored to life (Acts 9:36-41)

She was a Hellenistic Jewess, called Tabitha by the Jews and Dorcas by the Greeks.

And I thought Tabitha was a lady who twitched her nose  Wink

There is only one name but rather two interpretations of the same name. Tabitha which also means Dorcas.


Act 9:36  Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.

Act 9:39  Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.


Do tell, in which city of crooked roads is the Street called Straight?  Roll Eyes
(Romans, Acts, 1Thessalonians, or Hebrews)


Act 9:11  And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth,

It is located in Damascus, Syria. The streets of Damascus were originally designed in a grid pattern. Under Roman rule this street was widened and straightened and turned into a colonnade street. Some of these columns of the colonnade are still in place. During Roman rule it was approx. 85 ft wide and was lined with shops on the covered porches of the buildings. Today it is much narrower due to buildings being added or replaced with ones of different size and the street is not as straight today as it was then.

Wow!  What a lot of good information!

If the bases are loaded, and with one swing of the bat 3 are brought home what is the name of the batter?

No takers on this one??  Well I don't know the answer either but I'm sure hoping that it's a Mariner because my grandson and I are GOING TO THE GAME TODAY!!  WHOO HOO!
We are playing the Twins which is the director of the mission's team, since that is where he is from originally.  He's a pretty cool dude and well liked, but I'd sure like to have 'bragging rights"!

Okay, before anyone smacks me upside the olde head and says "You're out!".  I'm stretching a little, but in good-natured fun...

Where in the Bible does God show his prowess in Baseball and field a foul ball?
(Genesis, Ruth, Isaiah, Matthew, or Revelations)

Now admittedly, I was stretching.  Now that I'm limber and ready to run, turn on over to Isaiah 22:18.

18 He will surely violently turn and toss thee like a ball into a large country: there shalt thou die, and there the chariots of thy glory shall be the shame of thy lord's house.
(King James Version)

I know it's just a reference to a ball being tossed (a foul ball at that), but isn't that what baseball is, tossing a ball...

Just a little tongue in cheek banter.
Sincerely,
The MangoMan
