Review of Who Told You That You Were Naked?
Posted: 31 Dec 2021, 07:36
[Following is a volunteer review of "Who Told You That You Were Naked?" by William Combs.]
The book, Who Told You That You Were Naked by William E Combs, is a biblical discussion basing on the book of Genesis. The author's first encounter with the light was when he had went out at night. He later went back to the house after his mother's concern of his long length absence. The author used the insidence to understand God better. He pointed out biblical characters and the desire to walk with God as they did. He once encountered with the supernatural and heard the words that the biblical Adam heard, " Who told you that you were naked?" This incidence helped the author to try to figure out how sin entered into the world. The author also used the analogy of the lamb which had been trapped and Adam did not harm it but become it's friend, treated it and fed it. God warned Adam against eating the fruit in the middle of the garden. Adam named all animals according to their own abilities. God named a woman out of man's rib. This was after He caused a deep sleep on Adam and removed a rib. The author describes the fall of a man as caused by the deception from the serpent which is the devil. This led the man to harvest all manner of grains, roots, vegetables and fruits. The author's idea from the phrase, " who told you that you were naked," is not God judging them but Adams own comprehension.
I love the authors use of flashback. This makes the story real as the flashback itself is the author's experience in life. He has professionally used the natural happenings and related them with them with the supernatural in order to make a better understanding of God. The author has also developed a more interesting story based on what is just written in the Bible. This he has achieved by thinking outside the box, which makes the book so interesting to read. He has described the biblical events in an orderly manner for clarity when reading the book. I also love the study questions after a chapter which enhances the deep understanding of his ideas.
Although the book is so interesting, it contains many typing errors. This proves that the book is not professionally edited. The author has not used any vulgar language or sexual content. I have also loved the flow of the topics, how he has developed them and explain each one of them basing on the Bible.
I rate the book three out of four stars. The book is not only interesting to read, but also it is educative. I think the author's main motive in writing the book was to teach people on the issues related to them basing on the biblical stories.
The book is so much useful to those who enjoy tales as it contains several small stories which the author developed in the book to enhance the understanding of the reader. I also recommend the book to the students of religion as it explains much in the scriptures.
