Look, Buddy: The Bible is More Interesting This Way

Mallory Ortberg, who frequently rewrites Bible passages for amusement, decided to replace “Behold” with “Look, Buddy”

Genesis 3:21-23

“Also for Adam and his wife the Lord God made tunics of skin, and clothed them.

Then the Lord God said, “Look, buddy, the man has become like one of Us, to know good and evil.”

…

Numbers 23:20

“Look, buddy, I have received a command to bless; He has blessed, and I cannot reverse it.”

This is so much more entertaining than the Emoji Bible.
