I can just imagine: The desert at dusk. Issac, weary from a hard day's work, heads outside to meditate. He pulls out a no-name cigarette, looks at it in disgust and strikes a match. And there, as the sun goes down, its final gleam rests on the future love of his life.
Genesis 24:64
"And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she lighted off the camel."
Wow! Smoking in the Bible? Does that mean Camel was the official brand of the Old World? Can you imagine what the smoking world would be like now if R.J. Reynolds Tobacco had found the following verse instead of the one in Genesis?
1 Samuel 25:23
"And when Abigail saw David, she hasted, and lighted off the ass, and fell before David on her face, and bowed herself to the ground."
Instead of Joe Camel, I'm pretty sure this guy would be the spokesman for that brand.

Abigail, DANG! Does this mean she struck a match to lit-up off a donkey's butt? That is some hardcore smoking...and kind of hot for a Bible girl.
