The Book of the Acts of God: Contemporary Scholarship Interprets the BibleThis book does not treat the Bible as great literature or as a collection of spiritual or moral teachings, but as a record of God's action in human history as perceived by believing men who sought to understand the ways of God and communicate them to others. They did so, of course, with the outlook, thought forms and traditions of their time. Hence in describing the books of the Old and New Testaments and the Apocrypha, the authors of this book make full use of recent studies in the history of traditions and new perspectives in modern archaeology and theological research. |
