Laughter in the Old Testament (nonfiction)

Laughter in the Old Testament.

Mitchell

Jokes are aggression.

Arthur Koestler observes:

In the Old Testament there are (according to Mitchell) twenty-nine references to laughter, out of which thirteen are linked with scorn, derision, mocking, or contempt, and only two are 'born out of a joyful and merry heart'."
