About this product
Product Information
The Many Faces of Biblical Humor examines how the writers of the Bible intentionally used humor, irony, and sarcasm to argue their points concisely. This work begins with the dysfunctional families of Genesis, continues delightfully through every book of the Bible, and ends with a glorious fulfillment in Revelation. Along the way, the reader is presented humorous stories, pathetically funny characters, and poignant quips and quotes from prophets, poets, and principals. The author paraphrases each biblical text in an engaging prose that highlights the humor of that passage-humor that may not have been previously noted by the reader. Between the paraphrases, the author sets the historical and linguistic setting, allowing the reader to see how the humor (and puns) of the text enrich the biblical understanding of God's message. Also included are applications of these marvelous passages to our daily lives as we see our own foibles portrayed in the biblical characters. In many ways, this is a Bible commentary with an accent on the humorous. In another sense, it is simply a delightful book that makes the Bible come alive through the latent humor of its characters and their stories. Book jacket.

Fantastic seller. Received the Bible with quick delivery. Item was packaged with care to protect the delicate item. Bible arrived as described. A few pages had some pen markings that were not mentioned (most likely unnoticed no fault to the seller), but the seller was quick to correct the issues and responded quickly to my concerns. Very happy with this seller, his service and his product. Definitly recommend anyone feel comfortable purchasing with them. Would buy from them again in the future.

Price, description, but most importantly… Communication! The seller messaged me to tell me that they were on vacation and would not be able to ship it until they returned, asking if I still wanted it with the delayed shipping ability. I did, and I felt that was very thoughtful of them to take that into consideration and communicate it..

The seller did a great job of packaging and shipping my item. The Bible is exactly as described, if not better. It looks like it was just taken out of the box. A+++ Seller
