Summary

Too often when we come to the Bible, we settle for easy answers. We move quickly toward the allure of resolution. But when we ask the questions the Bible is asking, we will do these things instead:

  • understand the Eastern perspective of words, numbers, and core principles like eternal life, truth, sin, and faith
  • recognize the literary devices and the reclamation of stories used in the Torah
  • read the historical books both as inspiration and as cautionary tales
  • interpret the distinct genres in Wisdom Literature, such as psalms and proverbs
  • decipher the unique elements of prophetic literature
  • perceive the often tongue-in-cheek nature of the Gospel accounts
  • view the New Testament letters as inspired, authoritative interpretation of the story of God

Transformative.

This feels like the distilled essence of Marty's BEMA podcast. It's refreshingly honest about the struggles we may have when coming to the text and it offers not just new ways to overcome them, but new lenses through with to view the text and our questions surrounding it.

I'd reccomend this book to anyone who is genuinely keen to read the Bible deeper than face value.
