Who Told You That You Were Naked by William E. Combs successfully and succinctly investigates various scenarios from the christian scripture starting with the oldest and most illusive garden, its occupants, and the occurrences that transpired while going about their routine activities which led to an unfavorable turn of events that will eventually have a lasting effect on them, their progeny and their relationship with their infinite source of all that was considered good and pure. Instances observed though each with their own peculiarity have much lessons to impact, that would be of much value for later generations to come, which depending on how it is utilized will restore that broken relationship with the divine source of all that is good and pure or further widen the breach that was caused by the actions of the origins of mankind.

Who Told You That You Were Naked by William E. Combs is definitely an insightful, intriguing, interesting, educational and refreshing perspective on occurrences documented within the christian scripture. The author gives like the back story of discourse and actions that took place which maybe considered to fill in some of the gaps in the story itself without altering the overall message of the original text for both believers and readers which depicts the skill and experience of the author. The author while making reference to encounters and experiences of notable personalities (Paul, Joshua, Abraham, Satan, Adam and Eve to name a few) within the Bible creates room for reflection by posing various questions relating to each aspect of that personality, and drawing out views and lessons that are applicable to our daily activities. The book was written in a simple and concise manner which makes it easy to read and understand.

The author applies a theological view to carefully assess the nature of sin and its effects, while disproving the normal ideology behind its nature and relating it to the efforts made by individuals to overcome it. There's nothing to dislike about the book other than the abrupt ending of its content as I would have liked to see more evaluation of other notable figures from which lessons can be learnt.

The book was well-edited as I did not note any errors while reading. It was very interesting to read and though its content is biblically related I found it very insightful, my rating of the book is a 4 out of 4.

I recommend the book to practioners of the Christian faith as it covers important aspects of the related scripture that can be reflected upon to further improve ones spirituality.
