How could someone read Paul’s rant against the super-apostles in 2 Cor. and doubt the Biblical use of scarcasm. Or how about Elijah ragging on the Priests of Baal when they tried bring the fire down from Heaven. (”Dance faster. Maybe your god’s busy going to the bathroom and can’t hear you.”)
Exactly. I was just recently reading this passage in 1 Kings 18:27 and having a good laugh.
