Description
In this second book of his popular lexical trilogy, Frederick Buechner profiles more than 125 of the Bibles most holy and profane people and one whale. In his lively and witty prose, Buechner brings to life such moments from scripture as:
Adams pangs of regret for a remembered Eden
Delilahs last glimpse of Samson as they dragged him away
Lazaruss first impressions upon rising from the dead
To read Peculiar Treasures is to realize that many of these legendary figures are not who we thought they were. But they are in their human dreams, ambitions, and imperfections very much like us.
