Although, I think it was a bull, not a steer, as they did not have
steers at that time (at least I don't think so, as I see no reference to Rocky
Mountain Oysters anywhere).
Which brings us to another joke
Q.
Do you know what a steer is?
A. A cross between a bull and an axe.
The Sunday school teacher was carefully explaining the story
of
Elijah the Prophet and the false prophets of Baal. She
explained how
Elijah built the altar, put wood upon it, cut
the steer in pieces and
laid it upon the altar.
And then Elijah commanded the people of God
to fill four
barrels of water and pour it over the altar. He had
them do
this four times.
"Now, said the teacher, "can anyone in
the class tell me why
the Lord would have Elijah pour water over the
steer on the
altar?"
A little girl in the back of the room started
waving her hand,
"I know, I know," she said. "To make the
gravy!"
