Real Anthrax

I was flipping around one of my old diaries and I found some sermon notes from when Papa was preaching through the book of Romans.

… if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. (Romans 12:20)

Did you know that the Greek word for “coal” is “anthrax”? I think I started contemplating kindness for some people a little too gleefully that morning.
