What stories in the Bible show God has a sense of humor? What things in life show His humor?

My favorite is in Mark at the garden of Gethsemane when someone lost a tunic and ran away naked. I thought that was hilarious to just toss in there like that.

Well...

Telling some poor schmuck to build an ark on land, and then gather two of every animal, and prepare for a sea voyage kinda shows a sense of humor...

I mean...he must've known how that would look to the neighbors...

How about the Sons of Sceva in Acts 19:14-17 Even the Devil hates fakes!

Another sign of God's sense of Humor is just take a trip to the nearest Zoo or casually walk down the street and look at some of he people He created!

How about when the youths were yelling at Elisha, "Go on up you bald head!"
Or when David was dancing naked in the street, and everyone thought he was crazy?
Of course, God has a sense of humor, but He didn't show it much in His word. However, in His creation He did, and in us, He did, and we were created in His image, so, yes, He does have a sense of humor. Isn't He great?! God Bless

Bible is a reference to Christianity but not the only one and not the only focus for Christian development, you can see God has sense of humor in your own life and a relation based in love and affection that Jesus taught of to have with our own father and the Holy spirit.

God made kittens and puppies and children, so I think it's safe to say He has a sense of humor

My answer is not from the Bible, but from how He answers my prayers sometimes, I think He has a sense of humor.

Hate to burst your bubble but God didn't write the bible, man did. So any reference you see as humorous in the bible was put there by man... not God

I know some enlightened priests do. But the "holiness" of it all seems to dispel any notion of "humor" with devout Christian believers.

There is nothing in the NT that would indicate one way or the other; however the hebrew scripture reveals a homicidal and brutish entity quite devoid of humor or compassion.
