Christians:Do you ever consider the possibility that the bible was originally Parody?

Question

Most things in the bible just make me laugh ...... I was wondering if its a theory that has been explored. That the bible was meant to be read as Parody.
eg
Just after God gives Moses his special magic powers in front of the burning bush, the next day while on their way to Egypt, God tries to kill Moses for not having some of his penis cut off. So hilarious, imagine Moses thinking "But God, ........remember you said 'take of yer shoes this is holy ground!'........you could have just slipped in 'Errr.....and the rest"". That God is such a forgetful guy sometimes.
Then Moses wife say "You are nothing but a man of blood to me!!!". Moses must have been thinking "Oh my, why do I bother"

Answer 1

a parody written over a 1,500 year time-period, by more than 40 authors, in three languages, on three continents? i really don't think so and i doubt you do either.

Answer 2

Abraham was born year 2008, the Old Testament was done year 3623, 443 BCE.

Matt.1:1-17.

New Testament was written after Jesus ascended in the year 31 1/2 CE.



Ishmael was born year 2094, at age 13, Abraham circumcised him, year 2107,

Abraham was age 99, Gen.17:24,25.



Moses was born year 2433, he was circumcised shortly thereafter, but his wife

did not allow him to circumcise their son, she was forced into doing so and was

angry about it, Exo.4:25,26. Moses had to abide by all the rules and regulations

before he could carry out a mission for God's people, generation four from year

2083 at 430 years after the covenant is here at year 2513, or generation four

is here from the time Isaac is heir year 2113, at 400 years, Gen.15:13,16.

Abraham, Isaac's heir is Jacob, 1) Levi, 2) Kohath, 3) Amram, 4) Moses, Exo.6:

16-23,26. Generation four is in the Exodus of Egypt, Exo.7:7; 12:40,41, years

2513 to 2553 and Joshua takes over for Moses, in 450 years, Samuel will be

age 80, year 2963, 1103 BCE, David born 1107, is age 4, in 20 years Samuel

will anoint him king, when king Saul still has 6 years to go, then Samule dies,

1Sam.25:1.

After Moses died, and Joshua was 15 days into the New Year, year 2554, the

Judges to Jair is 300 years, year 2854, Judges 11:26, Samuel is born year

2883, David is born year 2959, Samuel dies year 2983, 1083 BCE, David dies

year 3029, 1037 BCE, 1Ki.2:10,11, Solomon is king 4 years, 1Ki.6:1, 480

years after the death of Moses( 2553 + 480 = 3033, 1033 BCE), he began the

temple and it is done in 7 years, year 3040, 1026 BCE, 1Ki.6:38, for the bible

books that was there at that time and those coming in the future to have a

home, at year 3460, 606 BCE, when the temple is destroyed and the land is

desolate, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Daniel are writing their books, the location

of the other books are not made known, but they are there when the new

temple is done, in the time of Nehemiah, Haggai and Zachariah.

All is well through Allexander the Great 336 BCE, and the Maccabees onto

Herod restores the temple for 46 years, John 2:19-21.

Jesus is #62 in Genealogy of Matt.1:1-17, the generations are reality and

the history of mankind as generations surround the generations of Jesus

and we come foward to our time.

Answer 3

No. I don't consider it, because it's not true.



The whole circumcision situation was more of an obedience issue than anything. By the way, I think you're a little confused. It was Moses' son who was uncircumcised, not Moses himself. Moses had not circumcised his son, as he KNEW he should have done as an act of obedience to the Lord. He was literally disobeying the Lord by having his son live in an "unclean" state, and the Lord cannot allow His messengers to be disobedient. I think that Moses still had some psychological changing to go through at this point, and he was scared. He still needed to gain some courage and faith. I really admire Zipporah for stepping in here and keeping the Lord's commandment, even when it was scary.

Answer 4

Did you ever consider the irony of this...the cross He died on...was meant for you !

Now that is funny. What a scandal that a righteous God would justify a total mocker like the thief on the cross. The fun never ends, does it. Well, maybe for some. The other fellow on the third cross did not make out as well. But hey, every comedian has a few jokes that go crickets.

Answer 5

It is unintended parody.



It is like when the least intelligent person in group says something that is not meant to be funny, but it turns out to be hilarious.



On less mirthful side of things, it is a tremendously evil book full of capricious murder and threats from a god that is apparently an insecure narcissist with bipolar mania and depression governing his actions.

Answer 6

Writing in our custom is a luxurious. In Bible circumstances writing replaced right into a potential that no longer many had and it replaced into no longer handy love that's on the instant. You and that i'm able to bypass to WalMart and by paper and pen notwithstanding it replaced into no longer incredibly uncomplicated back by then. it is likewise uncertain that the gospel writers and Paul might have willingly enable themselves be flogged, stoned, beheaded, and crucified for the sake of "making some guy seem holy" in the event that they knew all alongside they have been perpetuating a lie. What did they might desire to benefit? They weren't gaining wealth, and their basically earthly reward replaced into persecution. no longer basically that, the gospel message positioned many in others in instantaneous possibility because of the fact the early church suffered plenty persecution which contains the slaughter of harmless infants. If the gospel is a lie, possibly you could clarify how the full international now is conscious who Jesus Christ is centuries later based on the writings of a few followers who had no potential of mass verbal substitute, little or no preparation, and have been constantly under the possibility of dying as they unfold the information of Jesus Christ. Do you no longer locate it odd that this small band of adult adult males devoid of weapons and no military by any potential would desire to no longer be silenced? that's a miracle the gospel survived in any respect. i've got self assurance God has risk-free His be conscious and nonetheless protects it to on the present time! <><

Answer 7

Of course, it would make you laugh if you were not born again or you were not taught the truth as a child. You need to be born again of the spirit. You are not in the Kingdom of God.



Now, once you start learning and get good teaching about the Bible, it is more and more interesting. Obviously, you have not had any good teaching at all. I do hope your eyes will be opened soon to the truth.

Answer 8

No. If it was a parody it wouldn't of survived. It wouldn't be a source for human truth by church fathers, St. Ignatious, Augustine, Aquinas, Calvin or Barth. Or scholars, academics, linguists, anthropologists, philosophers, scribes, writers, artists, poets, painters, musicians or architects - plus 100s of other disciplines. It's the most scrutinized book in the history of mankind.

Answer 10

You might consider yourself learning-impaired if these biblical passages instill mirth in you. The Bible is a morality tale written in verse. Take heed and cease to mock what you don't understand.

Answer 11

Not to offend but men offend God .The Bible is the word of God it is all real ever story is true. For they have been written down by Gods Prophets..

Answer 12

Haven't you run out of points to ask this type of drivel yet ??? We all get the picture - you have made the decision to deny God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit...........your endless nonsense will be of no avail to you or anyone else due to the hardness of your heart and the blindness of your eyes, all thanks to the one you apparently love and worship - Satan................





Remember your choice and all this barf you are spewing when you are at the feet of Jesus Christ, crying your eyes out and begging for mercy, just before He casts you into.....................I won't spoil the ending



(PS- with this garbage you even make atheists look wise )

Answer 13

Your question is so generalized that you make yourself look ignorant of what the Bible really is.

Answer 14
