Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon with Shelah from the Bible

Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon with Shelah from the Bible

Have you ever played the game "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon"? It’s a popular game where you connect any actor to Kevin Bacon through a series of movies. But what if we played it with a Biblical character like Shelah? Let’s give it a try!

Step 1: Shelah was the son of Judah (Genesis 38:5).

Step 2: Judah was the brother of Joseph (Genesis 37:26-27).

Step 3: Joseph was played by Ben Kingsley in the movie "Joseph" (1995).

Step 4: Ben Kingsley also played Don Logan in the movie "Sexy Beast" (2000).

Step 5: Don Logan was directed by Jonathan Glazer.

Step 6: Jonathan Glazer also directed the music video for Radiohead’s "Karma Police" where Thom Yorke played a man in the back seat of a car.

Interesting Trivia: Ben Kingsley won an Academy Award for his role as the title character in "Gandhi" (1982). "Sexy Beast" was a crime comedy-drama film that received critical acclaim for Kingsley’s performance as Don Logan. Jonathan Glazer is also known for his work as a director on "Under the Skin" (2013), which starred Scarlett Johansson.

Now for a Bible verse related to Shelah:

"Judah acknowledged them and said, ‘She is more righteous than I, since I wouldn’t give her to my son Shelah.’ And he did not sleep with her again." – Genesis 38:26

In this verse, Judah is referring to his daughter-in-law Tamar who became pregnant by him. He acknowledges that she was more righteous than he was because he did not give her to his son Shelah as a wife. This shows that even though Shelah was a Biblical character with a limited role, his story is connected to larger themes of righteousness and justice.
