- "When Adoni-bezek fled, they pursued him, seized him, and cut off his thumbs and big toes (Judges 1:6)." -big toes....that is funny
- "...Eglon king of Moab, who was an extremely fat man (Judges 3:17)." -what a way to be remembered and described to others....that is funny
- "Even the handle went in after the blade, and Eglon's fat closed in over it, so that Ehud did not withdraw the sword from his belly (Judges 3:22)." -get in my belly!! Poor guy....but it's funny
I am sure that these are not meant to be funny, but let's face it to the modern day reader of these passages...they're funny!
