Biblical Pickup Lines 1: “Thou surely must be jelly. Verily, jam shaketh not like that.” 2. “What tribe are you?” 3. “Your tent or mine?” 4. “Nonsense, Mary - of course I’ll still respect you.” 5. “Wanna go for a moonlight ride on my new camel?” 6. (David, to Bathsheba) “Hey, isn’t your husband leaving for the front lines soon?” 7. “If I can make the Red Sea part, surely I can make your legs do the same, woman!” 8. “Wanna go down to the oasis and break some commandments?” 9 “Hey honey, wanna see my rod and my staff?” 10. “Come to my tent and save me from the sin of Onan!” 11. “It’s only a sin if you LIE with me- so, technically, it’s okay if we’re both still STANDING, right?” ---
