"Jesus wept" is a phrase famous for being the shortest verse in the King James Version of the Bible, as well as in many other translations. It is not the shortest in the original languages.

Talia al Ghul is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics, commonly in association with Batman. The character was created by writer Dennis O'Neil and artist Bob Brown, and first appeared in Detective Comics #411. Talia is most commonly known as being the daughter of the supervillain Ra's al Ghul as well as the on-and-off lover of the superhero Batman and the mother of their son Damian Wayne. The circumstances of Damian's conception have varied over the years, with the original story behind his conception being the result of a brief marriage between Bruce and Talia in the Elseworlds story Birth of the Demon, the second explanation being a result of a raping of Bruce by Talia, and later the result of a consensual affair between Bruce and Talia during which they were unmarried either soon after Bruce's career as Batman began or immediately before its beginning. Over the years, she has alternately been depicted as an anti-heroine who is constantly torn between being an ally and an enemy of Batman due to her loyalty to both him and her environmentalist father, with whom she shares the same vision when it comes to saving the planet and nature, but not the means he uses to achieve that goal.
