The Song of Eve

I am a big fan of books set during Bible times, and this one is one of my favorites. I enjoyed reading about the time before the flood. Actually, this is the first book I've ever seen written about that time in history. I think that the author does a fabulous job of helping us to understand this time period and the people in it.

Even though the whole concept of a story set in that mysterious world that was our earth before the Great Flood may seem naive or presumptious depending upon one's point-of-view, Strong's description of the antediluvian world and of the people who lived at that time comes across as highly believeable. We need to take seriously the lessons conveyed in this story and in the Scriptures Strong quotes. Otherwise, we will be just as doomed as the wicked antediluvians.

June Strong successfully manages to portray the world before the flood, the sinfullness of man, his lust, his greed and the loving God. She portrays a world where the children of God are despised. This book shows how God can touch lives and bring new meaning. It is one of the saddest and yet most beautiful of stories ever told.
