Yours Faithfully is an anthology of virtual letters from the Bible,
in which leading biblical scholars have composed imagined
correspondence between characters from scripture. This collection
is meant not only to entertain, but also to convey the insights
that each author has into the world and the discourse of the Bible
and its cast. These letters range between a strictly historical
mode and a contemporary idiom, and embrace the serious and the
playful. But in every case the aim is to offer a commentary on
familiar texts and events by filling in some of the gaps that are
left, and both build upon and expand a long tradition of
"retelling" the Bible. Philip R. Davies is Research Professor of
biblical Studies in the University of Sheffield.
