I recall an old Mad magazine that had a feature called something like "The Biblical Mad’, wherein a number of pages were Bible-related gags. One was “A Collection of Very Thin Scrolls”. The titles I remember were “The Complete Fig Leaf Wardrobe” by Eve, and “Amusing Things to Do While Trapped in a Whale’s Stomach” by Jonah. I know there were others but I can’t remember them now. ---
