Review of Killing Abel
Posted: 08 Apr 2023, 09:59
[Following is a volunteer review of "Killing Abel" by Michael Tieman.]
Michael Tieman wrote the book, Killing Abel, in the purest meaning of the term. The book provides information on scriptural tales, exposes our eyes to those we are not accustomed to, and provides answers to questions that we ordinarily don't ask or, more accurately, don't have answers to.
The book is a story that is based on the Old Testament volume of Genesis in the Christian Bible. starting from the outset until the flood. The book talks about how Lucifer felt such sorrow despite having no one. All he felt was wrath and hatred toward God, humanity, Adam, and Eve. The impact of the drought had made life on Earth even more difficult. The lives of the two siblings, Cain and Abel, were also described in the text. Despite how loving and caring his brother Abel was toward him, Cain was envious of him. As a result, Cain cared less and was driven by hatred to kill his brother Abel. We also discovered that Cain's fixation with the tree demonstrated how much a lawless man needs it. The book also demonstrates how Noah would have known about the one significant shift that had been caused by Cain and the compassion he had received in time. For those who were fixated on the tree, the law would now place restrictions on their lives through shame and the knowledge Adam acquired, all the way down to the descendants of Cain, Enoch, Lamech, Methuselah, and Noah.
I like how the author brought the characters to life, particularly Eva, the first child born to Adam and Eve, who is attractive and intelligent. while anxiously awaiting the conception of Cain and Abel, her mother's male children. Eva raised Abel until he was a grown man, and they ultimately got married. After learning that Cain was responsible for her spouse's murder, she has made it her life's mission to exact revenge. In reality, she began to feel increasingly isolated in what she now regarded as her private battle for justice. Eva was a tenacious person, but the murder of her husband and the absence of justice for him were turning her persistence—a characteristic that is typically positive in people—into an obsession. There were numerous story twists throughout the novel.
I dislike nothing about this book. It portrayed an ancient tale in the most understandable form for readers. I highly recommend this book to theologians and Christians alike. The focus of the novel is on themes like greed, treachery, revenge, compassion, and love. Humans are egocentric and self-centred creatures who prioritize their own goals over those of others. God, who has always been a loving parent, tends to forgive us because he is aware of how we abuse that affection. This book opened my eyes.
I gave this book a rating of 5 out of 5 stars, seeing as the author provided a thorough knowledge of the first Bible story that was taught in churches and schools, and it also aids in the understanding that history is wise. That wisdom is by far the most valuable resource because it results in a genuinely fulfilling existence. The book was exceptionally well-edited and error-free.
