Hard sayings of the bible

Bible Language Explained by 
Walter C. Kaiser

Hard Sayings of the Bible provides easy to read answers to the difficult verses in the bible that makes sense to the general reader. It is a handy reference book that explains over 500 troubling bible verses to find solutions ranging from everyday discrepancies to God’s justice. The author sheds a contemporary light on the passages, making them more relevant today, as opposed to the general practice of travelling through time and finding ancient meanings irrelevant in these modern times. The book lists over dozen of new chronologies, essays, articles, linguistic cross-references and cultural backgrounds, combining resources to untie the scriptural knots. The author’s research academic record and vast experience as a professor of theology shine through in this 1990 Christianity Today Critic’s Choice Award. His command over the scripture, biblical criticism and exegesis cuts through the heavy verses on miracles and prophesies, eventually sorting out misunderstandings, contradictions and confusion.
