Does any one know the longest verse in the Bible and how did you find it? and is anything special about it or just another verse?

Its supposed to be Esther 8:9 with 78 words in the king james version. different versions have different numbers of words in a verse. I found out about for a trivia competition.

The Longest Verse in the Bible is Esther 8:9 8:9 Then were the king's scribes called at that time in the third month, that [is], the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth [day] thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded unto the Jews, and to the lieutenants, and the deputies and rulers of the provinces which [are]from India unto Ethiopia, an hundred twenty and seven provinces, unto every province according to the writing thereof, and unto every people after their language, and to the Jews according to their writing, and according to their language. http://www.godrules.net/library/kjv/kjvest8.htm Poetry By Me: http://rapoetics.blogspot.com/
