How (Not) to Read the Bible: Making Sense of the Anti-women, Anti-science, Pro-violence, Pro-slavery and Other Crazy-Sounding Parts of Scripture

by Dan Kimball

There are even warnings in the Bible itself that some of the New Testament books “contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.”‡ I actually find this encouraging. I love that the Bible itself says that some of the Bible will be hard to understand.
