Is God a Moral Monster?: Making Sense of the Old Testament God by Paul Copan
3.0
I didn't really enjoy this book, but didn't really have a problem with it either. It was assigned for a course and I read a lot, but not all of it.
In general, I think he answers a lot of questions that no one is really asking. His answers to questions range from "nailed it" to "what the heck are you talking about?"
Overall, this book is a good introduction to how to deal with problematic OT texts. That being said, I doubt anyone will be fully satisfied with the answers found in this book, but he will definitely kickstart your research.
