Winner of The PEN Hessell-Tiltman Prize 2022 Shortlisted for The
Wolfson History Prize 2022 A The Times Books of the Year 2022 Three
thousand years ago, in the Southwest Asian lands we now call Israel
and Palestine, a group of people worshipped a complex pantheon of
deities, led by a father god called El. El had seventy children,
who were gods in their own right. One of them was a minor storm
deity, known as Yahweh. Yahweh had a body, a wife, offspring and
colleagues. He fought monsters and mortals. He gorged on food and
wine, wrote books, and took walks and naps. But he would become
something far larger and far more abstract: the God of the great
monotheistic religions. But as Professor Francesca Stavrakopoulou
reveals, God's cultural DNA stretches back centuries before the
Bible was written, and persists in the tics and twitches of our own
society, whether we are believers or not. The Bible has shaped our
ideas about God and religion, but also our cultural preferences
about human existence and experience; our concept of life and
death; our attitude to sex and gender; our habits of eating and
drinking; our understanding of history. Examining God's body, from
his head to his hands, feet and genitals, she shows how the Western
idea of God developed. She explores the places and artefacts that
shaped our view of this singular God and the ancient religions and
societies of the biblical world. And in doing so she analyses not
only the origins of our oldest monotheistic religions, but also the
origins of Western culture. Beautifully written, passionately
argued and frequently controversial, God: An Anatomy is cultural
history on a grand scale. 'Rivetingly fresh and stunning' - Sunday
Times 'One of the most remarkable historians and communicators
working today' - Dan Snow

For Christians, the Bible is a book inspired by God. Its eternal words
are transmitted across the world by fallible human hands. Following
Jesus’s departing instruction to go out into the world, the Bible has
been a book in motion from its very beginnings, and every community it
has encountered has read, heard, and seen the Bible through its own
language and culture.
In The Bible, Bruce Gordon tells the astounding story of the Bible’s
journey around the globe and across more than two thousand years,
showing how it has shaped and been shaped by changing beliefs and
believers’ radically different needs. The Bible has been a tool for
violence and oppression, and it has expressed hopes for liberation. God
speaks with one voice, but the people who receive it are scattered and
divided—found in desert monasteries and Chinese house churches, in
Byzantine cathedrals and Guatemalan villages.
Breathtakingly global in scope, The Bible tells the story of this
sacred book through the stories of its many and diverse human
encounters, revealing not a static text but a living, dynamic cultural
force.
