Thy Rod and Thy Staff They Comfort Me, book by Samuel Martin
I posted a review on my site of Samuel Martin's book Thy Rod and Thy Staff They Comfort Me: Christians and the Spanking Controversy: http://www.positivelyfeminine.org/li.../bk/martin.htm . (I'm giving away a free copy, too.)
The book has been a huge revelation to my husband and me. We were very pro-GBD, didn't spank, etc. before, but his examination of the rod verses has given us a firm foundation on which to base all those beliefs. I also feel better equipped to defend them in the face of pro-spanking arguments.

I like this book. Stuck on our old computer's hard drive is an e-copy I got free a couple of years ago.

I'll have to get a copy of that one I hadn't heard of him before, but he left a blog comment that I followed over. Looks like a good book!

Re: Thy Rod and Thy Staff They Comfort Me, book by Samuel Martin
It is a fantastic book! . I think that anyone who reads it would be convinced that the Bible does not teach spanking. Samuel Martin has written lots of articles as well and is working on more books.

Re: Thy Rod and Thy Staff They Comfort Me, book by Samuel Martin
I agree! It's a great book. I read it a couple of years ago. It's scholarly and takes a little time to get through, but there is so.much.information. He lives in Israel and has access to rabbinic writings that we in the Christian West have never seen.
