Review of Killing Abel
When born into a Christian family, we are educated and told many biblical stories, from which we are to find some meaning and learn many moral lessons. Unfortunately, depending on the version of the Bible used, some of these biblical stories may be difficult to understand. The book Killing Abel: Fratricide by Michael Tieman retells Bible stories from an interesting perspective.
Tieman talked about the creation of man and how God created Adam and made Eve out of his rib. God provided for all their needs, but also instructed them to eat anything in the garden except for the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Lucifer had deceived Eve, and they had eaten the fruit. They were both sent out of the Garden of Eden by God. Adam and Eve started a family, and they had children together.
Eva was the firstborn child of Adam and Eve, and Eve cried to God to give her a son, and she gave birth to Abel. God instructed Noah to build an ark because of the coming flood and how it would affect the rest of the world. Noah was obedient and completed building a boat the size of a football field. Then, as instructed by God, he filled the ark with various animals. Want to find out how Noah and the animals survived the flood? Get this book.
I liked this book bcause I had to compare the scriptures with the book; it showed that Michael had put in the effort to research the Bible, which made reading the Bible more interesting. Killing Abel also pointed out the importance of obedience and how rewarding it can be. Another admirable quality that Michael brought up was love, as well as the significance that it can have in our day-to-day lives. Killing Abel contains many life lessons; you must read them carefully. The book also talks about the power of prayer and having faith that we will receive the answer to our prayers or the miracle we seek.
I didn't have any reason to dislike this book. I recommend this book to Christians, anyone researching the genesis of life, and anyone who loves biblical stories. However, I encountered a few errors while reading this book, which shows that Killing Abel: Fratricide by Michael Tieman was professionally edited. I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars because I enjoyed reading the Bible from Tieman's perspective.
