Woman of the House

Careless? Malicious? Can’t recommend it.

Revisado: 10-11-24

I saw this book because a friend told me it was in use in a church Bible study. The author misunderstands the nature of the covenant expressed in Genesis 15. It goes downhill from there. Jesus becomes the one who teaches rather than atoning for sin. There’s an attitude of reciprocity between man and God (phrased that way on purpose) which completely misses the idea of communicatio idiomatum. We’re left in the end with works righteousness and a suspicion that if we don’t end up like the “model” people n the Bible we must not have surrendered enough or in the right way. This is toxic.

Sadly inadequate recording

Revisado: 11-21-22

The material, of course, is superb. However the voice actors often seem stilted and self important rather than capturing the characters with fluency and depth. The recording also lacks definition and acuity, making the dialogue often unintelligible. I tried but had to abandon listening to this recording.

There's something missing in this tragedy.

I had trouble gaining any sympathy for the main character. That made it difficult to consider it a successful tragedy.

Disappointing

Revisado: 04-04-18

I listened to over a third of this. the supercilious tone of writing, the revisionist history, and frequent chronological snobbery drove me away. Maybe it was an attempt to be light-hearted and approachable, but it didn't work out that way for this listener.
