Live Free - Die Hard

Judith 16: 21-25
21 After this they all returned home to their own inheritances. Judith went to Bethulia, and remained on her estate. For the rest of her life she was honored throughout the whole country. 22 Many desired to marry her, but she gave herself to no man all the days of her life after her husband Manasseh died and was gathered to his people. 23 She became more and more famous, and grew old in her husband's house, reaching the age of one hundred five. She set her maid free. She died in Bethulia, and they buried her in the cave of her husband Manasseh; 24 and the house of Israel mourned her for seven days. Before she died she distributed her property to all those who were next of kin to her husband Manasseh, and to her own nearest kindred. 25 No one ever again spread terror among the Israelites during the lifetime of Judith, or for a long time after her death

This photo and reading match because both deal with people standing on a very firm point. You would have to be there to understand what I am talking about. But for those that don’t, one of the curators was very avid about the viewing hours. They saw our gourp waiting patiently behind another goup going though the museme, but when we politly asked if we could have a few extra minutes to veiw the last few rooms, she said that no, and that was final. This was the nice version.

When you go though the reading, you discover that Judith  was also stuborn to live the life style she did. This was a type of stuborn that was oposit of the curator of the museme, being sturborn isnt always a bad thing. As you can see, Judith was trying to help those in need to to maintain being a ‘good person” Both of these people stood for what they believed in, and made sure others knew about it.
