A good second look.

First of all, I confess. I'm lucky enough to know Peggy (Wallworth) Maddox, so OF COURSE I have to give her five stars! :) But there is one thing she's done here which seriously deserves special attention. She has, I think, managed to provide workable possible answers to some of the questions which may particularly trouble younger contemporary readers confronting the Biblical accounts of the rebellions of Korah and Dathan and Abiram. (For example, why were whole households killed when God punished evildoers?) While not simplying these questions, she hasn't ducked them either, and the result, besides being a good yarn, is an imaginative expansion of Biblical accounts that reconciles God's love with His justice. I may not agree with her interpretation at every point, but I can certainly applaud what she has accomplished.
