I like the concept of these “style” Bibles so much, there’s a good chance they might turn up again in another strip. There’s one designed like a fashion magazine for teenage girls. I assume it includes makeup tips from Jezebel.
Jimmy looks so sad in every strip, even when he’s on dates with Amanda. Maybe more sad.

JIMMY: Hey Jabez, what are you doing?
JABEZ: Bible shopping.
JIMMY: Aren't they all the same?
JABEZ: Oh, no! That one there has testimonials from sports stars on some pages. This one over here has a detailed atlas of the world in biblical times. There's even a comic book style Bible that I read sometimes for fun!
JIMMY: How about this one? It looks nice.
JABEZ: No, that's just a plain old Bible. I doubt it even has a concordance! What use is it?
