Welcome to Title Tuesday, my favorite day of the week! This day is dedicated to book suggestions, news, cartoons, and reviews. For 2020 I decided to structure my book reviews by breaking each month into topics. You can find my topics list here. This month we are covering womanhood. So lets jump in!
Today I want to share a Bible study with you. My favorite person in the Bible is Leah, a woman not often mentioned in women's groups. So imagine my surprise when I stumbled across Loving Leah: A Legacy Revealed by a Woman Unloved by Sylvia Page.Let me start by saying that this is a book study on the story of Leah. This book has questions and things to ponder, but it is not a straight biography of Lea or a pure Bible study... it is an interesting mix of the two.
Loving Leah is clearly written by someone who admires Leah a great deal, and has spent a long time studying this portion of Genesis. This book can be a great encouragement to women that are dealing with unfaithful spouses or husbands that seem more dedicated to their jobs than to their wives as this was often the case with Leah's husband.
Overall, this book was theologically sound, and I would likely share it with a friend. But the many typos, grammatical errors, and publishing issues makes this book a 1 star because it can be difficult to enjoy the fruit of solid theological study when the brambles of poor editing get in the way.
