THAT WHICH DOESN'T KILL YOU MAKES YOU STRONGER.

Bull. Reality is, it will usually hurt like hell and leave you with a permanent limp.

I have 2 favorite Biblical stories: (1) Exodus 4:24 -26 Where , for some unstated reason, GOD was coming to meet Moses and was going to kill him. Zipporah, Moses' wife, takes a sharp stone and whacks the foreskin off her infant son and throws the bloody foreskin on Moses' feet. This so pleases GOD, HE lets Moses live. NOW that is a great tale. (2) Judges 11:4 - 40 (but esp. 30 - 40) Where Jephthah is drafted to fight against the people of Ammon, and vows to the LORD that if the LORD will give him victory, he will give up as a burnt sacrifice to GOD the first thing that comes to greet him when he returns victorious to his home. His ONLY child, a daughter, is the first thing to greet him when he returns; and he sacrifices her as a human burnt sacrifice to GOD, and this pleases GOD highly. Man, I LOVE a good biblical story.

I just want to add that my answer was only related to the Old Testament. I also have a personal, preferred story from the New Testament and that´s the Story of the Nativity.

I really like the story where Elisha the prophet brings back to life the son of a woman who showed hospitality to him. The reason is that is the only place in the bible there is a mention of someone resurrected.

14:

Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die.
15: And Nathan departed unto his house. And the LORD struck the child that Uriah's wife bare unto David, and it was very sick.
16: David therefore besought God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night upon the earth.
17: And the elders of his house arose, and went to him, to raise him up from the earth: but he would not, neither did he eat bread with them.
18: And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died. And the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead: for they said, Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spake unto him, and he would not hearken unto our voice: how will he then vex himself, if we tell him that the child is dead?
19: But when David saw that his servants whispered, David perceived that the child was dead: therefore David said unto his servants, Is the child dead? And they said, He is dead.
20: Then David arose from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his apparel, and came into the house of the LORD, and worshipped: then he came to his own house; and when he required, they set bread before him, and he did eat.
21: Then said his servants unto him, What thing is this that thou hast done? thou didst fast and weep for the child, while it was alive; but when the child was dead, thou didst rise and eat bread.
22: And he said, While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept: for I said, Who can tell whether GOD will be gracious to me, that the child may live?
23: But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.
24: And David comforted Bath-sheba his wife, and went in unto her, and lay with her: and she bare a son, and he called his name Solomon: and the LORD loved him.

Is Judaism more like Christianity or Islam?
