question 8:  How many Biblical characters cursed their own birthday?  

answer:    At least two …

(1)  Job  ~  “After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth. And Job spoke, and said: May the day perish on which I was born’” (Job 3:1-3a).   

(2)  Jeremiah  ~  Cursed be the day in which I was born! Let the day not be blessed in which my mother bore me! Let the man be cursed who brought news to my father, saying, ‘A male child has been born to you!’ Making him very glad” (Jeremiah 20:14-15).

  1. Interesting... knowing the back story, I don't think they were cursing their birthdays because they hit the big 3-0 or 4-0 or 5-0 or 6-0, etc.! :)
