-...the more I have read and studied Scripture over the decades the more I become aware that the writers were more often sharp-tongued trouble makers with a biting sense of humour than they were safe moralisers like the LXX translators The Ltalians have a saying: -Traduttore, traditore.- about how translators often betray their text.

 

Scripture is often sharp, frequently cutting to the bone, quite often funny, but seldom safe!
