We have often heard stories about Adam and Eve. Their life in the Garden of Eden, eating the apple, God's wrath, the history of Cain and Abel, and how brother killed brother. But have you ever thought about how Adam and Eve lived daily? What was the conversation between the characters in the Bible, and what was bothering each character? Killing Abel by Michael Tieman answers all these questions. In addition, you will meet such a biblical character as Lucifer. Besides, the book contains many fascinating facts beyond the Bible, such as the author's interpretation, which offers different views. The book can answer the question - why did Cain kill Abel?

I liked this book a lot because of the many details. First of all, the author tells the story with his interpretation. Every time you read the Bible, you can get a different feeling and understand a little history differently. It has been put to good use by Michael Tieman, and he tells us about his option. It makes for a fascinating story! I also liked that the author discusses the problems of humanity. He tries to find a big problem in a small story, which I perceive as a genius. I also liked that the author researches while telling the whole story. He is constantly trying to find answers to questions and various reasons.

While the book is fascinating, there are many things I liked about it, but there are some details that I didn't like. The first thing I felt while reading was that author spent much time on passages that didn't need that time to describe. The author could have been more concise. I should also mention that in the book, I noticed several deviations from history, which were very far from the reality of the Bible. It made me question how well the author knew about the Bible. I should also mention that the editing was not great because I found several grammatical errors.

Although the book is fascinating, I rate it 3 out of 4 stars. If it were not for deviations from historical facts, grammatical errors, and the author being a little more concise, I would not have reduced it by a single star and would give it the maximum rating.

I recommend this book to people interested in religious issues. Also, who wants to understand more than the Bible? This book is also for those who have their interpretations and attitudes towards the Bible, so you can read it and compare it with your knowledge. It will allow you to ask more questions and answer more questions. An intriguing discussion awaits you with the author!

I love books based on biblical events. I completely agree with you on that: "Every time you read the Bible, you can get a different feeling and understand a little history differently." Great review!

I think it’s OK to interpret events that are not specified in the Bible your own way. I think that’s why God gave us such vivid imaginations and made sure each question was not specifically answered. I know others have differing opinions.

I agree, individual views are great. But when it's clearly deviating from the norm, I don't think it's a very pleasant read.
