You're missing a key part to the story, Saul (no, not that Saul/Paul) was ~~buying~~ selling a human woman with those foreskins.
And who was the person who ~~wanted~~ traded these foreskins in exchange for the human woman? David, as in, David and Goliath.

Edit: swapped the vendor/purchaser. I left the religion about 20 years ago, so I should probably fact-check myself before posting.

Well you didn't think that sling was just made of out any old leather, did you?

It's a sling, but if you rub it, it becomes a catapult.

Kinda got it backwards-King Saul required David to do it for his daughter’s hand in marriage. David and his squad killed 200 of Saul’s (Israel’s) sworn enemies. That was the source of the payment.

Thanks for the correction. I left the religion about 20 years ago, so I should probably fact-check myself before posting about it. Memories are not perfect.
