Most of us know that the Bible has been published in many forms and editions. The Gutenberg Bible, Good News for Modern Man and the King James version are familiar to most.
Now there is a new version, The Bible in Limerick Verse. The Reverend Christopher Goodwins has transformed the New Testament, the Old Testament and the Apocrypha into a form he hopes will be more popular.
He describes his book:
An Isleham Vicar called Chris
Wrote Scripture in limericks.
"This should help people read,
About Jesus, indeed,
And enjoy it, - not give Him a miss!"

A limerick Bible? Mon dieux!
It's what I'VE always wanted to do!
But the Rev. stole my fun.
Now that it's been done,
All that's left is the Bible haiku!
So...
The love of money
Is the root of all evil
(But still loads of fun.)
-Timothy, 6:10 (with additions)
