In Slaying the Dragon: Mythmaking in the Biblical Tradition,
Bernard Batto argues that biblical authors, like other ancient Near
East authors, used mythic traditions in composing their works.
Batto joins massive evidence with masterful argument to show that
myth actually lies at the heart of the theological enterprise of
the biblical authors. Slaying the Dragon is sure to provoke
dicussion on the theological relevance of myth in the biblical
tradition.
