The Story of Elisha and the Small Boys
A story in the Bible recounts an incident where Prophet Elisha is mocked by a group of young boys for being bald. In response, Elisha curses them in the name of the Lord. Subsequently, two she-bears emerge from the woods and maul 42 of the boys. The story is a cautionary tale about respecting authority and carries a gruesome tone.
