John Frame Critique of Pete Enns
John Frame has a critique of Peter Enn’s book. You can find this here. While it is not the most penetrating analysis it is still worth reading.

In general I think Frame make some legitimate criticisms. However, Enns’ more convincing points are mostly or entirely ignored in Frame’s review. Viz:
1) Issues of genuine diversity (as opposed to instances which Frame exposes as only apparent). e.g. Nathan’s variant addresses to David in 2 Sam. 7:16 and 1 Chron. 17:14.
2) The issue of erroneous extra-biblical tradition incorporated in the New Testament. e.g. Abraham’s chronology in Stephen’s Acts speech.
Perhaps there are cogent solutions to these, but Frame might have mentioned so.
