I think I read that story in my children's bible as a kid, but I had no clue what a foreskin was at the time so I just read that Saul tried to get David killed but David was super awesome and killed twice as many enemies as required.

Lol. When I read the passage as a child, I knew enough to know it was some sort of skin flap removed from males, but I couldn't understand why something so obnoxious seemed worth so much - 200 to buy a princess?!? I couldn't imagine what king Saul wanted to do with them. I think I ended up imagining that the Israelites must have dried them and used them as currency. :eek:

Come on, man! They're Philistines. Similar to the stormtroopers on Star Wars. You can kill hundreds of them and hardly anyone will even notice. ;-)
