In this broad philosophical examination of the relationship
between religion and the family, Jay Newman delves into issues
concerning Biblical religion, culture, sociology, and family
values. He maintains that recent media debates about the Bible and
family values have obscured the complex relationship between the
family and religion.
Focusing on how the family values that the Biblical literature
imparts might be relevant--or irrelevant--to family problems and
other cultural problems in a modern Western democracy, this study
contributes to the understanding of basic cultural relations
between religion and the family. After reflecting on the effects of
much Biblical teaching on the family, the book proceeds to explore
the cultural and existential significance of competition and
cooperation between Biblical religion and the family.
