"The Old Testament Speaks," by Samuel J. Schultz. Second Edition, Copyright 1960.

At the strategic location on a hill three miles north of Jerusalem, Saul fortified Gibeah to counteract the Philistine military superiority. By capitalizing on the successful attack by his son Jonathan, Saul routed the Philistines in the battle of Michmash (I Sam 13-14). Among other nations defeated by Saul (I Sam 14:47-48) were the Amalkites (I Sam. 15:1-9).

    Okay from the "The Science of Art Optical themes in western art from Brunellecshi to Serurat" by Martin Kemp

    As an engraver by profession he was not eligible for formal election to the Academy, but he was made an Honorary Member in 1651 in recognition of his contribution as a teacher. The publications issued by Bosse during and after his years at the Academy give a clear idea of his courses. He provided direct instruction in Desargues's Maniere , which was extended to embrace different ways of creating the two scales(pl. 235), the means of relating the underlying geometry to the notion of a picture plane as a 'window'(pl. 236), demonstrations of how a complete box of space can be create (pl. 235), and the scaling of human figures in the space (pl. 238).

    Does this have something to it or is this just for kicks?
