Hemmorrhoids in the bible- not kidding

[Revilonivek]

imagine 7 months suffering with  hemorrhoids?? That's before Prep H was invented

Finally figured out the meaning of emerods. They are hemorrhoids. Emerods are kjv 1611's version for hemorrhoids without the h.

According to 1st Samuel chapter 5 and 6, keep in mind that The Philistines were struck with hemorrhoids  by God for 7 months because they wouldn't return the ark of the covenant back to the Israelites. Anyway, the Philistines figured the only way to get rid of their itchy problem (hemorrhoids)was to give the Ark of the Covenant back to the Israelites, and make some golden images of hemorrhoids and mice also to soothe God's anger.  I feel bad for those poor souls.. imagine having hemorrhoids for 7 long months.. makes me wanna itch.


5:9  And it was so, that, after they had carried it about, the hand of the LORD was against the city with a very great destruction: and he smote the men of the city, both small and great, and they had emerods in their secret parts.

5:12  And the men that died not were smitten with the emerods: and the cry of the city went up to heaven.

I was looking for Longhorn to come up with:   "in the KJV 1611 they were called "emarods"; in the
NKJV they are called "asteroids"!

Believe Me Dude, I've had problems in that area, not for 7 Months, but I highly doubt that I would have lasted that long before returning the Ark Of The Covenant. Knowing what I know about Hemorrhoids, All God would need to do is warn Me once about getting them.  ,  ,  .
