Yes, I have 3 more questions to get cleared up.
1.  Some new cards have 2 Biblical verses (identifiers?), and they often represent both testaments.  If my card has a quote from Psalms and then, in parentheses, one from Hebrews, is it an O.T. and a N.T. card?
2.  Samarian and Damascus sites:  that big ol' exegesis book and the glossary have lots of info about Egyptian sites and other regional sites, but King Joran's text refers to "holder having a Samarian site"; and King Rezin mentions "a Damascus site".  Maybe I'm blind and missed them, but I couldn't find a heading listing Samarian or Damascus sites. Is Damascus and Gates of Samaria all there are?  If not, could you give me a list?  I never do well on Jeopardy! in Ancient Geography  8)
3.  The artifact Gideon's Ephod:  either I just missed the whole point of the text or there's a missing clause or dangling participle that makes me unable to grok this card.  It reads:  "If a judge is in play, decrease abilities and evil O.T. enhancements are regardless of protect abilities.  Decrease human heroes in battle 0/3."   Decrease abilities by what?  Evil OT enhancements are what (regardless of protection)?  I suspect I'm just not understanding the wording, but that's why I'm here--to understand the rules.   

Much obliged.

1. Yes, it is both O.T.  and N.T. In those instances, the N.T. referencing is usually directly quoting the O.T. reference.

2. King Joram references Samaria Sites, not Samarian Sites. Those cards refer specifically to the Sites named "Samaria" and "Damascus", respectively.

3. That first sentence is supposed to be read "(decrease abilities and evil O.T. Enhancements) are regardless of protect abilities." That is, protect abilities don't work against decrease abilities or evil O.T. Enhancements.
