This is a really wonderful book.
This book gives good inspiring insights on these women life and how we can relate to them on so many levels.I recommend it.
As a new member of the B&H/Lifeway bloggers (free!), I received a complimentary copy of this book to review and was immediately struck by its quality - nice hardcover, thick shiny pages, and a ribbon book marker.Despite these pleasant features, my delight turned to dismay when I realized that the illustrations from classical paintings are neither acknowledged by title and artist, nor are they at all representative of the 31 women whom they're supposed to portray. As I said in the longer review on my blog, almost every beautiful painting used as an illustration in this book shows tones from stark white to ruddy skin but does not feature women who look like they’re from countries in Africa or the Middle East. Although my own skin is close to stark, I still resent this too-common misrepresentation of Bible people.I also take issue with the book’s perspective. According to the Introduction, 31 Women of the Bible offers a "concise summary of each woman’s appearance in Scripture, viewed through the lens of our modern culture.†But, don't we already see through contemporary cultural lenses and, therefore, automatically do that as we read? What we do not see is why people did what they did in a specific time and place with concerns and conditions unlike our own. I wish the book gave us this type of insight.A woman’s insight would be welcomed, too, as “The Takeaway†and questions asked are not ones I think about or particularly want to know.Since I’ve agreed to give a review in exchange from my complimentary copy, I have to do something I don’t normally do – give the book 3 stars. My personal preference is to only review books I can happily give 4 or 5 stars to, so I’m feeling bad about this and don’t want to discourage the author in his work. Besides, I think this book makes an interesting one-month devotional to help readers see how human nature hasn’t changed, nor has our need for God. Each woman portrayed comes with a unique personality and strong character from which we can learn more about ourselves or the women in our lives.I’d most recommend this book, though, as a 31-week (or more) guide for a Bible discussion group where members are encouraged to read the text, consider the questions prior to meeting, and feel free to add their own. Then, oh, what lively discussions would most likely occur!
31 Women in the Bible delves deeper into the characteristics and lives of each of the females mentioned in the book. Not only does the author share details of who they were and what they did in life, but he also gives the reader a greater understanding of what they may have been going through on the inside. He does this by providing detailed information about their lives and the circumstances they experienced, scripture references, and my favorite part, a "Takeaway" section that is offered at the end of each individual biography. Upon reading these sections, I would sometimes find myself rethinking what I thought I knew about a few of the people mentioned. It was definitely an eye opener!The book also includes a section called, "Food for Thought." This area offers several afterthought questions that readers can further expand their character studies with. Sometimes the questions involve circumstances in that person's life, while other times they are questions directed to the actual reader. This allowed me to sometimes put myself in their shoes and see circumstance through their eyes. There is a note from the author in the beginning that mentions the hope that each reader will "be challenged, encouraged, warned, and helped." I personally felt that this book definitely accomplished these tasks.Every time I read one of the biographies, I felt this insistent need to keep going, so that I can learn more about the rest of the women included. This is probably one of the more remarkable Biblical character guides that I've personally read. The text also offers a more concise, down-to-earth writing style that definitely kept me engaged. This is a book that can be read from front to back, or in different settings as a Bible study. The pretty blue ribbon bookmark is a handy feature that allows me to keep my place. There are also a ton of beautiful full-color illustrations throughout that really help bring each woman's story to life. I received an advance review copy of this book to read–all views expressed here are unbiased and purely those of my own.
Overall reading short snippets about different women mentioned in Scripture was interesting. Some of the written snippets were written better than others, and each included three questions to ponder. When I read a book like 31 Women of the Bible, I try to remain open to glean the nuggets of wisdom that seem to leap off the page. The questions to me ranged from helpful to thinking the questions were not pointing to the deeper meaning of the women’s’ lives they were sharing.One could read this within a short amount of time or use it as part of their devotion time. My suggestion would be to always read from the Bible anything about the woman being portrayed in the book before reading the day’s snippet. A book like this is a good way to introduce women of the Bible in a way that hopefully launches people to look to how these women point to God or Jesus.There were a couple of snippets that were written in a way that seemed to not focus seriously on the woman or what she experienced. I personally didn’t care for the misrepresentation of what the women may have looked like as they seemed to be of European descent and these were women far removed from those portraits included in the book. As long as one reads looking for what God may be speaking to them, then one will come away with something to ponder on. But don’t stop there, look at a concordance to find any reference in Scripture about these women to get an accurate portrayal of who there were, where they lived or what their lives were like historically.
