Wonderful continuation!

On a long car ride I flipped on the lookout for a nice program by various radio channels and could not get in one voice. This voice was so pleasant that I could not escape it; only gradually I realized what it was in the story, namely the reunion between Jacob and his brother Esau. At the end of the show I learned that Michael Köhlmeier was the speaker and the narrative part of his CD Biblical Stories "came from. The decision was immediately fixed, this CD I have to have.

Köhlmeier reads this is not just the Bible, but he tells them, as you can imagine that sitting of millennia around the campfire, these stories have been passed down from generation to generation. Moreover Köhlmeier integrated parallel to the Bible resulting stories. But where the Bible has gaps (for example, when asked how it was that the Israelites were initially received in Egypt as friends and then as slaves found again), he speculated about what might be happening this makes always clear recognizable as speculation. The stories of the Bible are so very vivid and concrete and the characters become real people with all human strengths and weaknesses.

The second part of the biblical stories (4 CDs) extends from the transition of the Israelites as friends of the Egyptian slaves, about the rise of Moses as leader, the nine plagues up to the Exodus from Egypt, the wandering in the wilderness and the receipt of 10 Bids to the death of Moses.

Conclusion: A voice that strikes the listener in its spell and a wonderful work-up of the stories of the Bible. An extraordinary listening pleasure.
