WHO TOLD YOU THAT YOU WERE NAKED? : A REFRESHING REEXAMINATION OF THE GARDEN OF EDEN. WILLIAM E. COMBS. FRANKLIN, TENNESSEE: CARPENTER’S SON PUBLISHING, 2016. 242PP.
Who Told You That You Were Naked by William Combs does not only come across as a “beautiful” analytic commentary of the bible but is in actual sense, a very important Christian spiritual resource and tool.
The book consists of ten chapters which begins with the author’s own recreation of the events at the Garden of Eden, in chapter one. Although, the narration is tinged with some flavor of fiction, it creates a vivid picture of what life probably looked like in Eden and impresses on the reader an enhanced appreciation of man’s relationship with God.
In the subsequent chapters, the ramifications and consequences of Adam and Eve’s disobedience to God are explored; the concept of sin and the inherited knowledge of good and evil in mankind are exhaustively treated. Salvation, faith and the import of “shame” are so effectively explained that chapters 6 through chapters 10 constitute the central “message” in William Comb’s Who Told You That You Were Naked.
The author did a critical grammatical and scriptural work in this book. I know that there is hardly any work that is completely error free however, I believe the book must have been professionally edited because I am yet to spot one grammatical error. In driving his message, the author did not only employ the ideas of other respected authorities but also, relied heavily on the scriptures. His shared testimonies were really appealing especially the one about his wife’s confrontation with the “devil”.
I have not read many Christian literature notwithstanding, I am persuaded to believe that this work definitely would stand out. As a Christian, I find William Combs book highly resourceful and spiritually filled. I am already having testimonies and a new understanding of the omnipotence of God’s will and his mandate for everyone. The barrage of scriptures in this book will be found useful by any practicing Christian.
I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. There is no doubt in my mind that it deserves this maximum score. I am in complete agreement with William Combs in many of the hot topics raised, especially, that the presence of “shame” in an act depicts the conviction of guilt.
I recommend it to all who are desirous of a positive change in their life especially to those who have given their life to Christ.
