Biblical Limericks: Never Let It Be Said…



As a king, Abimelech was flawed,
he ran over his subjects roughshod;
at Thebez he was crowned
with a mill-stone thrown down
by a woman whom we should all laud.

Abimelech, he fell down slack-jawed,
asked his page to pierce him with a rod,
“For it cannot be said
when I am good and dead
that I was killed by a lousy broad!”

Judges 9: 50 - 54
