Hidden Treasures
Walking the Back Roads of the Bible in Search of Truth

by Judson Edwards

from Baptist Standard, September 14, 2007

Hidden Treasures is a wonderful title expressing what the reader will find in this book by Judson Edwards. He takes the reader behind scenes well known to Bible readers. An example is Ezekiel 3:15, where Edwards examines the phrase, “I sat among them for several days—overwhelmed” to illustrate the best way to communicate “is to sit among them”!

Edwards has kept the chapters short and pointed. He has added questions for reflection and discussion for each chapter that makes the book useful for small groups.

I found the book interesting, probing and a fast read, which makes it a delight to all who take this journey.

I encourage you to walk these back roads of the Bible with Judson Edwards.
