Stackexchange sites are for questions which have answers, not for discussions. To put it another way, if a question doesn't have a single "best answer", then it might need rephrasing, or it may not belong on this site at all. | |

| Feb 9, 2011 at 0:25 | comment | added | Uticensis | I came across a great example of the use of a Biblical literary phrase to create insight beyond comparable idioms just today, reading the news. As I was reading an obituary of J. Paul Getty III, it mentioned details of a past ransoming attempt that his grandfather, the famous J. Paul Getty, almost refused to pay for even when his grandson had his ear cut off. Curious to find insight into the nature of such a man, I visited Wikipedia, which quoted him as saying: "The meek shall inherit the Earth, but not its mineral rights." Could arguably any other phrasing have provided so much context? | |
