What if the Hebrew Bible wasn't meant to be read as 'revelation'?
What if it's not really about miracles or the afterlife - but about
how to lead our lives in this world? The Philosophy of Hebrew
Scripture proposes a new framework for reading the Bible. It shows
how biblical authors used narrative and prophetic oratory to
advance universal arguments about ethics, political philosophy and
metaphysics. It offers bold new studies of biblical narratives and
prophetic poetry, transforming forever our understanding of what
the stories of Abel, Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, Moses and David and
the speeches of Isaiah and Jeremiah, were meant to teach. The
Philosophy of Hebrew Scripture assumes no belief in God or other
religious commitment. It assumes no previous background in Bible.
It is free of disciplinary jargon. Open the door to a book you
never knew existed. You'll never read the Bible the same way again.
