20 fracture(s) for a fracture?

Eyetooth?

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, an eyetooth for an eyetooth, and 20 fracture(s) for a fracture!

What kind of Bible are you using?...no 20s or fractures The reference for breach (Lev. 24:19-20 KJV) has mischief in Ex. 21:23.

Cran,

I suspect the "20" comes from the verse number, which Jeff jokingly (and purposely) has misread as "20 fracture," hence the "(s)" to correct the supposedly poor grammar of "20 fracture."

I think you're both right.
