"There's alot of info here, but it's hard to make sense of it in a bigger picture context. Plus the stories don't really make alot of sense, especially when communicated in the style of "she did this, he did that," pretty basic stuff. I liked the first few chapters of Genesis, but after that I lost interest and it was a bit of a chore to slog thru... I didn't even make it to the New Testament. I guess the reader is supposed to accept the stories hook, line & sinker, however, I never knew the Bible was so fantastica.... "a thousand arrows of fire fell from the sky". Just like that. The Israelites were chased into and out of Judea/Canaan so many times I never knew exactly where the were, not to mention the books of the Bible cross over in time so its hard to keep track of what's happening when. Hopefully the Bible itself is a little more clear.
I'm still interested in being educated in biblical lore. I just think maybe a book with a little more substance and thought as to what it all means would be better for me."
"Had to learn these stories sometime. It's pretty interesting and gives some new insight in the old stories you've heard time and time again. Alternating between this and The Bean Trees."
"Wanted to get a quick review of the Bible since I'm too lazy and uninspired to read it myself. And now I realize that I should probably just read it myself. Sigh."
