New book's language updates Scripture | "There was no room for them in the inn," says the famous Christmas reading from Luke. Now, try this ersatz variation: "Crisis! 'No vacancy' signs in every B&B window." That's a sample from "The Word on the Street," a slang-ridden paraphrase of Old and New Testament passages by Britain's Rob Lacey, a performance artist whose stagings of Scripture include "The 2-Minute Bible."
