Did God approve of Rahab's lie? Why are many of the Old Testament quotes in the New Testament not literal? Does the Bible class abortion with murder? Where did Adam and Eve's sons get their wives? Does 1 Corinthians 7:1016 authorize divorce for desertion?

Referencing both the New International Version and the New American Standard Bible, this helpful resource makes scholarly insights accessible to everyone.

This update version is worth more than $12.99. I use this reference quite often. A must have for every serious Bible student.

This is one of the best resources you can have for serious Bible study. If you study the Bible for very long and in great detail you will encounter various texts that appear to be in error to modern theories or contradict other passages of Scripture. This book helps to clarify some of these passages. I was given this book after being beaten up by some Mormon elders concerning inerrancy. I was convinced (and still am) that the Bible is the Word of God without error or contradictions of any kind. This book helped to solidify my position and helped me answer some (not all) of Biblical passages that many see as errors in the Word of God. This is a great resource and a must have for those involved in cult evangelism or evangelism of any kind (Matthew 28:19; 1 Peter 3:15; Jude 3).
