Summary

A leading biblical expert offers readers a bold new understanding of scripture that respects both tradition and reality. Covering all the essential texts of the Old and New Testaments, Borg demonstrates how the stories of the Bible are not historical reports as much as vital teaching stories about man's relationship with God and Jesus.

Author Biography

Marcus J. Borg is Hundere Distinguished Professor of Religion and Culture at Oregon State University
