Who's coming to dinner?

If you could have two Biblical characters over for dinner who would you pick and why? Give 1st and 2nd choices, if you like. (Thanks to Chris Brauns for the idea.) 1st choice: Philemon and Onesimus.  Forgiveness is a big issue on my mind and heart recently.  We studied the book of Philemon in small group, and I am still meditating on it.  I would love to hear the details of how Onesimus was brought to repentance, how God providentially sent him to Paul, and what went on in his mind before he returned to Philemon.  I would also like to learn how God enabled Philemon to forgive and be reconciled to his brother.  Incidentally I highly recommend Pastor Brauns' book Unpacking Forgiveness . 2nd choice: Adam and Eve.  Questions about creation, when death entered this world, dinosaurs, whether Adam and Eve had umbilici, and what life was like before the fall could be resolved once for all! So, who would you choose?
