Ref. Post #160: The joke is that the Bible uses carpenters as metaphors for people who made wooden idols. So by giving Joseph and Jesus the occupations of carpenters it signifies that they were makers of wooden idols. Considering that Jesus ended up nailed to wood and that the figure is displayed almost everywhere it seems to be a valid metaphor. Jesus has become the premier wooden idol.
