Wit and Humor of the Bible (Illustrated) (Electronic book text)

Wit and Humor of the Bible by Marion D. Shutter with 15 illustrations. "The title of this book will no doubt affect many persons unpleasantly at first. "Flat blasphemy!" I can hear some one exclaim, "We have already had the authority of the Bible undermined by critics, and here is a flippant rogue who goes still farther, and assures us that it is nothing more than a jest-book! This is the very climax and culmination of godless folly." The author makes haste, therefore, to disclaim any intention of irreverence."
