Loveday's case is that the mantle of historical truth & divine authority has placed upon the Bible an intolerable weight crushing it as a creative work of immense imaginative & inspirational power His argument is both fascinating & persuasive' Matthew Parris The Bible for Grown-Ups neither requires nor rejects belief It sets out to help intelligent adults make sense of the Bible
- a book that is too large to swallow whole yet too important in our history & culture to spit out Why do the creation stories in Genesis contradict each other? Did the Exodus really happen? Was King David a historical figure? Why is Matthew's account of the birth of Jesus so different from Luke's? Why was St Paul so rude about St Peter? Every Biblical author wrote for their own time & their own audience In short nothing in the Bible is quite what it seems Literary critic Simon Loveday's book
- a labour of love that has taken over a decade to write
- is a thrilling read for Christians & anyone else which will overturn everything you thought you knew about the Good Book

Philip Yancey has a way of confronting our most cherished but misguided notions about faith In The Bible Jesus Read he challenges the perception that the New Testament is all that matters & the Old Testament isn't worth taking the time to read & understand Yancey admits that like many Christians he usually avoided the Old Testament After all why bother with writings that can be so baffling boring even offensive to the modern mind? But a surprising discovery awaited Yancey when he began to explore how the Old Testament related to his life today Those seemingly irrelevant Hebrew Scriptures took on a startling immediacy portraying a passionate relationship between God & people against the broad backdrop of human experience Like nothing else the Old Testament depicts the cries the complaints the deep insistent questionings of the heart the stuff of life we all must contend with With his candid signature style Yancey interacts with the Old Testament from the perspective of his own deeply personal journey From Moses the amazing prince of Egypt to the psalmists' turbulent emotions & the prophets' oddball rantings Yancey paints a picture of Israel's God--and ours--that fills in the blanks of a solely New Testament vision of the Almighty Probing some carefully selected Old Testament books--Job Deuteronomy Psalms Ecclesiastes & the Prophets--Yancey reveals how the Old Testament deals in astonishing depth & detail with the issues that trouble us most The Old Testament in fact tackles what the New Testament often only skirts But that shouldn't surprise us It is after all the Bible Jesus read The Bible Jesus Read will give you abundant new insights into the heart of God the Father & as you read with a fresh eye the prayers poems songs & bedtime stories that Jesus so revered you will gain a profound new understanding of Christ " The more we comprehend the Old Testament" Yancey writes "the more we comprehend Jesus" ...

In the past three decades archaeologists have made great strides in recovering the lost world of the Old Testament Dozens of digs in Egypt Israel Jordan & Lebanon have changed experts' understanding of ancient Israel & its neighbours- as well as their vision of the Bible's greatest tales Yet until now the public has remained almost entirely unaware of these discoveries which help separate legend from historical truth Here at last two of archaeology's leading scholars shed new light on how the Bible came into existence They assert for example that Abraham Isaac & Jacob never existed that David & Solomon were not great kings but obscure chieftains & that the Exodus never happened They offer instead a new historical truth the Bible was created by the people of the small southern nation of Judah in a heroic last-ditch attempt to keep their faith alive after the demise of the larger wealthier nation of Israel to the north It is in this truth not in the myths of the past that the real value of the Bible is evident ...
