Steve,
You may be right that "moral system" is somewhat hyperbolic. Yet I
suspect that also NABAL the Carmelite's death (see I Samuel 25:2-38)
was not an accident. By the way, I tend to think that NABAL means
'nobleman', as it is in Arabic. Possibly NEBEL, 'harp?', is an
imposing musical instrument.
