A couple of my own comments,
I know everyone will say drop first fruits however I think it has use with I am Holy and the potential of a d4 is so good.
Foreign wives might not belong, I have considered potius pilot but am not convinced that is the right answer.
I know the glaring absences are probably going to be Herod's Temple, Lampstand and scattered.

Can you explain this? Both make you discard good cards, but I don't see the synergy.
Foreign wives might not belong
I would agree, since anyone in territory can block if she is out. She has hurt TGT more than anything else, IMO. I think another WC dude would help, perhaps King Menahem (http://redemption.wikia.com/wiki/King_Menahem_(Ki))?

Maybe HT and Scattered, not sure I'm as big on Lampstand being necessary. The first two would be good to add if you can find room.

Foreign Wives should not be in this deck IMO. Your going to ruin you entire strategy for one block. Doesn't seem like a good trade.

@redoubter - If someone has RBD up I toss FF with i am holy if not then I take the d4 that was my point.
Scattered really should be in, why menahem instead of pilot.
Part of the reason I've steered away for HT is because of how quickly this deck, decks out.

A bit convoluted for me, and it only REALLY helps you if you already used FF and then they set up RBD, and you are lucky to only have 1 good card in hand (so you blow it up with IaH instead and wouldn't actually use the discard-D4). Not sure that this works any better than any other card that can draw being used for IaH when this one card is used.
Scattered really should be in, why menahem instead of pilot.
Menahem is very, very destructive, reusable, and is scarier when I have faced both.

I wasn't trying to say that it has great synergy but rather a second use that's it
