There have been many versions of the Old Testament over the centuries but never one quite like this. Spike Milligan has rewritten, in his own inimitable style, many of the best known stories of the Old Testament, featuring characters like King (my brain hurts) Solomon, the great oaf of a giant Goliath and the well-known Telegraph crossword clue, Hushai the Archite. The jokes, jests and jibes tumble over each other from Chapter One, Verse One until the end.Believers and non-believers alike will enjoy this hilarious reworking of the familiar text. 1. In the beginning God created the Heaven and the Earth. 2. And darkness was upon the face of the deep; this was due to a malfunction at Lots Road Power Station. 3. And God said, Let there be light; and there was light, but Eastern Electricity Board said He would have to wait until Thursday to be connected. 4. And God saw the light and it was good; He saw the quarterly bill and that was not good.
