-FCCJ Critique
"FIRST VOICES" is actually a series of Biblical stories that revolve around the lives of all the principal characters encompassing the Book of Genesis. It is a vast and complicated work with superb detailing of what could have taken place with original humanity in their involvement with their Creator. As with all my books, I devoted years of research to this enterprise. I wanted to accurately bring to life to the reader the possible mindset and approaches of the multitude of principal characters as they worked toward the preservation of mankind set against horrendous odds of failure.
The book takes a conservative but extremely thought-out approach toward the populations of The Book of Genesis. Within its pages the reader realizes the author's in-depth realization of the personality of Adam; his wife Eve; his children Cain, Abel, and Seth as well as their children, and their children's children. The multitude of original humanity is unveiled as never before. Here is the absolute presentation of true character development as is humanly possible given the reserves of historic records. This exploration presents to the reader a complete understanding of what happened in the Garden of Eden, with grand and extraordinary insights.
Thus, I strived in this Biblical-novel to present all the personalities of the Book of Genesis within the full scope of God's presence. I delved into their lives as no other writer has. More, I placed them within the context of historical underpinnings of other worldly rulers such as the Pharaoh of Egypt and the Minos of Crete. It was as though I was placed inside an invisible dome in front of Joseph and Benjamin. I imagined hearing the words of the king of Egypt (who would become called Pharaoh) as he interacted with aged Jacob.
I also wanted to create their presence within the time-line events of their contemporary history. I wanted to show how they interacted with other societies that were also beginning their rise into historic drama. So the reader may fully appreciate the political-economic currents of that historic era, I penned one incredible drama after another as their traits unfold in this giant exploration of the men of Genesis. The sounds of their first voices give credence to our own survival. Through their examples the reader will gleam the methodologies of spiritual survival of present days events. I set about to demonstrate how a family may discover through hardships the Shield of Salvation from the apocalyptic upheaval. Through the confession of our original fathers we will be inspired to walk in righteousness-because through them-we have a testimony that even though we may fail in our everyday tasks, the Grand Creator will uplift us to enter into his earthly kingdom as he has done for our first fathers. I sought to envision these series of events within the most profound spiritual and historic unveiling of Biblical personalities as I could with the context of Biblical revelation. By depth and scope this book becomes a voracious reading that luminously reveals every written word that our original fathers shared in the Book of Genesis. "First Voices" is rendered with a fresh and insightful interpretation.
