Fingers and Toes

I was lying in my bed reading Judges last night- which I can't say I've actually read ever. I may have skimmed...quickly...enough to know the general gist...but I had never really read it. But in my new love for the Old Testatment (OT) I am reading every word. And thus, I came across this:

Judges 1:6-7
6
Then Adoni-Bezek fled, and they pursued him and caught him and cut off his thumbs and big toes. 7 And Adoni-Bezek said, “Seventy kings with their thumbs and big toes cut off used to gather scraps under my table; as I have done, so God has repaid me.” Then they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he died.

How beyond funny God is- like laugh out loud funny. He indeed is a just God.
