An extension of his well-loved seminary course on humor in the
Bible, A Time to Laugh draws on Mark Biddle's command of Hebrew
language and cultural subtleties to explore the ways humor was
intentionally incorporated into Scripture. With characteristic
liveliness, Biddle guides the reader through the stories of six
biblical characters who did rather unexpected things. Biddle offers
the reverence due the Scriptures and provides a fresh focus on
their depth in such a way that readers can learn to "get the joke"
on their own. A Time to Laugh is a winning, scholarly, funny book,
not necessarily because Biddle himself is funny (although he is),
but because faithful ancient writers recognized the comic in what
God ordained and in how God's people behaved in response.
