New Book: Biblical Oddities
This book is a collection of the Biblical Oddities columns that I have been posting on my blog every Saturday. The columns have been collected into one place, revised, and expanded. The book also includes some articles that have not yet appeared on this blog.
The Bible contains many well-known passages that have become common knowledge. Stories such as Daniel and the Lion’s Den are commonly told and retold. However, the Bible also contains a number of highly unusual stories. You may know about the time God spoke to Moses through the burning bush, but did you know that God once tried to kill Moses?
This book takes a closer look at some of the strangest and most fascinating stories in the Bible. For example:
* Who are the Watchers?
* What is the Council of Heaven?
* What was Rahab the Dragon?
* Is there an ocean in the sky?
* What were the Urim and the Thummim?
* What are the Stones of Fire?
* What is Tartarus and why were certain angels sent there?
* Did Paul write a letter to Laodicea?
and many more!
