 | I love this thing! Feb 22, 2007 |
| After serving in West Africa on the mission field for a short time, I can instantly see the value of this book both for African scholars, those who teach and work with them, as well as a multi-cultural introduction to the Bible. Excellent insights, some of them seem to recycled Western ideas, but also shows the universality of the teaching of Scripture. Evangelical, Bible-believing, solid, well-thought. A good one volume to add to your library. |

| One of a kind commentary on the Bible Jan 15, 2007 |
| It is most amazing that in an Africa beset by tribal conflicts there could be such unity among those who call themselves Christian leaders to put together a book like this. It is a testimony of what God's love in people can do to make life different for them as they strive to teach others the Way. The book is well done and uses much from African culture to help us understand the Bible better. I love the use of African proverbs in explaining the Bible. I use it every day in my personal Bible study. |

| Perfect Gift Jan 12, 2007 |
| Our pastor has been preparing for a trip to Cameroon. When I gave him this book, he was very impressed with the content--so impressed we decided it was the perfect gift to take to the head of the missions board in Africa. |

| Excellent blend of African culture and scripture Jan 11, 2007 |
| This is a great effort by African scholors from all over Africa to educate African people about Christianity. "In Africa, Christianity is a mile wide and 1" deep." (Quoted from the ABC.) For me, as a non-African interested in supporting ministry for the Maasai in Kenya, it is a way to understand the Bible from a new point of view. Excellent, incredible work. |
