We are at a critical moment in our nation's history. Never have the
differences between our major political parties been greater; never
have the stakes been higher. To whom or to what do we turn for
guidance? Let's be honest. The Bible, which for many of us has been
the source of comfort, inspiration and wisdom, has as many facets
as a diamond carved by an expert jeweler. The answers are there,
but come in so many disguises, from so many different perspectives,
that only a master can lead us through the labyrinth that lies in
its pages. Such a master is Kenneth Hanson, professor of Judaic
Studies at the University of Central Florida, and such a book is
The Eagle and the Bible. Here is a refreshing look at the parallels
between holy writ and American history - uncovering the degree to
which both are rooted in an eternal battle for lean and limited
government, in opposition to top-heavy centralized authority. The
thesis, the theme, and the underlying truth is that the struggle
for liberty, justice and freedom present from the nation's founding
is paralleled in the struggles for liberty, justice and freedom
experienced by the heroes of the Bible. Hanson reveals an
anti-establishment, anti-big government current in the biblical
stories (challenging the "authoritarian" rule of David, Solomon and
others) that is today more relevant than ever. The Eagle and the
Bible comes to us at a time of great need for insight. It fulfills
that need and gives us the courage to meet the challenges of this
extraordinary time.
