I'm finding it VERY difficult to follow the summaries, they seem to go by so fast.
- A bombardment of new characters
- Wars, famines, fights, buildings - AHH so fast and so many.
But, is this a fault of the BOOK or just in general? Meaning, is it just the Bible - is it a topic that has no shortcut to learn properly?
I'm beginning to think that it may just be the Bible and the depth of it's teaching/topic/writing style. Meaning, it's hard to just understand it through summaries, most of the WISDOM of a Bible lies in the actual SCRIPTURES.
So, do I still recommend this book? YES.
But, I'm getting certain now that you should study the Bible in TWO ways:
- Actually read or listen to it - scripture by scripture.
- THEN, read a summary on it (such as this book).
So far the Books I understand the most are definitely the ones I read line by line and also studied in summary books (or articles).
