In what ways is the passage amusing?
Answers
when u read the bible :v :v :v ROFL .Certain biblical passages make me laugh every time i hear them.
– Mary and Joseph get lost: Mary and Joseph have already left for home in Nazareth and don’t notice for 24 hours that adolescent Jesus is missing. The anxious parents head back to Jerusalem where they find Jesus and give him the what-for.
– Peter argues it’s the Spirit, not spirits : Before Peter has the pleasure of being ignored at the door, it falls to him to defend speaking in tongues as the work of the Holy Spirit, not the work of the bottle, which is how some witnesses interpret the situation on Pentecost. “These people are not drunk, as you suppose,” says Peter. “It’s only nine in the morning!”
– Sarah argues with the Lord about whether she laughed: Three “men,” possibly two angels and the Lord himself, visit Abraham and Sarah. According to the text, the Lord mentions that the elderly, childless couple will soon have a son. “Sarah laughed to herself,” the text reads, so the Lord seeks clarification. “Why did Sarah laugh?” the Lord asks Abraham. “Is anything too hard for the Lord?” Sarah turns afraid and lies, herself denying that she laughed. But the Lord will have none of it: “Yes, you did laugh.”
