This review is from: 101 Most Puzzling Bible Verses: Insight into Frequently Misunderstood Scriptures (Paperback)

As a Bible answer book, it is pretty good overall. There were some verses that I was hoping to find in here that I found to be puzzling, but I was disappointed that they did not make it into the book. Also, I didn't necessarily agree with all the answers given. But I suppose when you have a puzzling verse, many people will not agree on what it means. Just understand as you read the book that the author isn't all-knowing and while they may present good theories or food for thought, these answers aren't necessarily authoritative. However, the majority of the book was good, interesting, and well written.
