Asking Better Questions of the Bible

A Guide for the Wounded, Wary, and Longing for More

By: Marty Solomon

Narrated by: Marty Solomon

Too often when we come to the Bible, we settle for easy answers. We move quickly toward the allure of resolution. But when we ask the questions the Bible is asking, we will do these things instead:

• understand the Eastern perspective of words, numbers, and core principles like eternal life, truth, sin, and faith
• recognize the literary devices and the reclamation of stories used in the Torah
• read the historical books both as inspiration and as cautionary tales
• interpret the distinct genres in Wisdom Literature, such as psalms and proverbs
• decipher the unique elements of prophetic literature
• perceive the often tongue-in-cheek nature of the Gospel accounts
• view the New Testament letters as inspired, authoritative interpretation of the story of God

Everybody who reads The Bible should read this book

I was skeptical the material in this book would be different from the BEMA podcast. I was impressed with the way the material was presented. I am grateful for the tools this book provides. There is zero filler here.

I love Marty's perspective and humility about the Bible. It is incredibly encouraging and inspiring to hear.

I liked it all. Nothing was said that didn't contribute to the book. Purple Elephant

BEMA and BOOK

It's a great book. If you love to study your word, this is a great user-friendly book to help take that study to the next level :)

Content flowed well, Cohesive with clarity. Left me excited about delving deeper.

Liked hearing Martie read his book.... as if he was still in the process of writing the book. A good book to listen to again.

The awakening of a proper way to consider the scriptures from the point of original contexts.

I’ve heard Mr. Solomon a lot and finally got this book. I listen to a lot of audio books and his reading came across as just that. A reading. But compared to many, he was awesome.
