I was talking with some friends from church the other day
about kids getting head lice at school. They mentioned that it seems like it is
always the same family that starts it. They surmised the reason is because when
that family finds out they have it, they treat the kids but don’t pursue it by
deep cleaning everything in the house to completely rid the family of the
pests. So every few months, one of the creatures would find its way back to one
of the kids and hitches a ride to school, spreading them all over again.
That situation reminded me of what I just read in Judges
1-5.
