If the Bible is the most-published book in world history, books about the Bible sometimes feel like a close second. That’s not a bad thing. I’ve written a couple of them myself and may have more in me. Books about the Bible are vital because they point us back to the sacred text, showing us how to read it, what it’s about, or (perhaps) how we’ve gone wrong in understanding it. For this reason, ever more Bible books are far from redundant; I’d go so far as to say they’re necessary.
