The Hebrew Bible and Philosophy of Religion (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781589837072)

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.
