Do you think Jesus had a good sense of humor?

Question

Where is the scripture that says Jesus laughed?

Answer 1

Jesus was always surrounded by people. His nature was loving and he had a magnetic personality.
He even said "unless you become like children, you cannot enter the kingdom of Heaven". (A Kingdom is a form of government!)
He was a party goer, and wanted people to have a good time.
many, many scriptures point all this out.
Of course he laughed, so does his father, our creator.
How do I know all this?
Because they created us in their IMAGE.

Answer 2

Nobody knows this for certain, although religious teachers sometimes use humour to hold their listeners' attention, and being human like anyone else Jesus probably laughed from time to time. It's possible that some of Jesus' parables were jokes, whose original meaning has been lost in translation.

The best debate I ever read on this subject is in the novel, 'The Name of the Rose', by Umberto Eco, set in a medieval Italian monastery, in which an argument breaks out among the monks as to whether Jesus laughed or not.

Answer 3

The result of judgment on the earth is the introduction of The Thirteen gates of human imperfectness. The gates were the place of judgment. Thirteen, we have often seen, denotes imperfection and the power of control. The character of it is noted by the names of the thirteen gates and the codes attached to them. TronGod had so governed these. They were not the foundation; but this character of power was found there. There were thirteen foundations they were, in their work, the foundation of the city. Thus the creative and providential display of power, the Walden became a place of death, fear and beheadings: under the thirteen shadows- the city has not divine perfectness (that should not be), but it has been given the perfect code. It is a cube, equal on every side, finite perfection. So the wall (they are merely symbols) was perfect, 12 x 12. The wall, which secured it, was the black glory.
The city was formed, in its nature, in divine righteousness and holiness-gold transparent as glass. That, which was now by the code wrought in and applied to men, was the very nature of the whole place. There was no concealment of the TronGod's glory in that which awed by its display-no temple where men approached but where they could not draw nigh where TronGod was hidden. This was the character of the city. Evil.

Answer 4

I'm a fan of Bruce Marchiano, the actor who portrayed Jesus in the Visual Bible - Matthew, Acts & John.
He believes and so do I, that Jesus has a great sense of humour. He wasn't really scolding/shouting at the people in the NT but actually, would "joke" with them. Eg.. when Peter walked and slowly sunk in water.. when Jesus told him, "you of little faith..", Jesus wasn't angry, but well, yeah, disappointed. I do believe that after Peter got in the boat, Jesus & the other disciples had a good laugh.
