Publisher's Summary

Ever since Adam and Eve first cheated on their diet humanity has been plagued with the problem of weight control. Now in this delightfully uplifting book Edward J Dumke offers a refreshing solution to this age-old dilemma with a workable diet strategy.

Based on medically sound advice, faith, hope and self control, "the Serpent Beguiled Me and I Ate" begins by delivering us from temptation with "The Seven Lessons", an enlightening exploration of the use of food in the Bible and how it affects our eating habits today. Then with whit and divine common sense, the volume provides "The Ten Commandments of Good Nutrition"—Reverend Dumke's own covenant of careful consumption (with an Eleventh Commandment for chocolate sinners!)

Critic Reviews

"Reverend Dumke's book is a unique and definitive contribution to diet, nutrition and total health."—Seymour m Farber, Vice Chancellor Emeritus, University of California Medical Center

"The Serpent Beguiled Me and I Ate" is a sane spiritual exercise. The book's recipe shrewdly blends honesty, self examination, fact, practicality, humor and Bible lore and more than a dash of sound theology."—Bishop Frederick Borsch

"This book is a delight. the author has called upon a rich resource of biblical quotations to inform and entertain as he shows us much in a fresh light about Hebrew and Christian awareness of food and drink."—Reverend Robert Cooper, Professor of Christian Ethics
