Find a quote from the character that was making the sharpest knife/sword possible to carry out a biblical prophecy (think it was an attempted murder of the antichrist) if you can. I really want to read about just how sharp the blade was again lol.

“I was not a religious Jew until God destroyed the Russian air force, and I can’t say I’m devout now. I always took the messianic prophecies the way I took the rest of the Torah. Symbolic. The rabbi at the temple I attended occasionally in Tel Aviv said himself that it was not important whether we believed that God was a literal being or just a concept. That fit with my humanist view of the world.”
