This book is a delight. It is thoroughly biblical and, once started, will be eagerly read by those who want to know the Bible better and it would be an asset to any church library. The author shows God’s dealings with Elisha and the nation of Israel. The author draws parallels with the saving work of Jesus and asks key questions that every believer must answer and apply to be a fruitful servant of our God and Saviour.
The style is easy to read with short paragraphs and the book’s 11 chapters make it a valuable Bible study aid for ordinary Christians, and an excellent overview for preachers, and Sunday school and Bible club teachers. The historical background is there, plus two sections for further study, one on other Bible passages and the other giving thought-provoking questions at the end of each chapter.
