He has a spear a lot like Goliath's because the Bible says, ''The shaft of his spear was like a weaver's beam.'' That is exactly what the Bible said about Goliath's spear. It was probably about a ten-foot long spear. Goliath was about nine feet nine inches tall. We are not told how tall Lahmi is. He is probably ...
