When I was a freshman in college taking "The Bible As Literature," I read in
the old KJV that the wise men came to the inn and found "Joseph and Mary and
the babe lying in a manger." My remark that this must have been quite a
sizeable manger was not well received.
Then there is a clear rebuke to those televangelists who ride around in
expensive cars, despite the testimony that the disciples, humble men that
they were, "were all in one Accord."
