September 2 2003: 2. BORING BOOKS OF THE BIBLE.

Which is the most boring book of the Bible? After some thought, I've decided on Jeremiah, largely on account of its length. How about the most interesting? The Gospels, with Matthew on top in a compromise between length and interest. Then Jonah-- a lot of interest packed into a small space. Then Ecclesiastes, Genesis, and Acts, perhaps. Note that by "interesting" I don't mean "important".
