My major question for the author would be, "Why did he employ that Adam and Eve had female daughters first?" This wasn't included in the Bible.

My question for the author would be, "why all the twists". Why didn't he stick with the original story as told in Bible. Because for people who aren't familiar with these stories, they might get the wrong idea about these Bible stories.

I have many questions for the author but the major one is if the author thinks he went too far with all his narrations

Dear Author, I have a question to ask you. It may not be in line with this book, but it's in line with biblical accounts and I can see that you're a bible scholar yourself. Is the book of enoch real? And if so why was the book allegedly removed from the bible?

I'd like to ask him why he chose to write this book. What enlightenment he thought he was communicating. Why he portrayed God in this manner. It's almost as if he's got a bone to pick with God so I'd like to ask if he's made at him
I'm here for a good time, not a long time. Yolo!

While reading this novel I found myself creating list of questions I had for the author. One question was how did he decide the events that came to be in his novel? With little information being known on the events that transpired in the first few chapters of Genesis how and why did the author interpret the Bible stories in this manner? Another question I had is where did he get his information from, specifically on the effects of the flood? In his novel he stated that as a result of the flood God implemented signs that stated He would never use a flood to wipe out mankind, these signs (according to the author) are the rainbow, the creators in the moon, and falling stars. Where did that information come from, just curious. :eusa-think:

I understand that you want to fill the gaps in the Bible. However, What exactly filled you with this imaginations, because there are so accurate?

I would also love to ask; by writing this book, do you think that you are going against the scripture that says that no body should add to the content of the Bible.
