Why the Bible Began: An Alternative History of Scripture and its Origins
Wright, Jacob L. (Emory University, Atlanta)
Demonstrating how the Old Testament or Hebrew Bible represents the first, and one of the most elaborate, projects of 'peoplehood,' Wright tells the dramatic story of the Bible's origins in relation to 1) a longstanding political division between North and South (Israel and Judah) and 2) the traumatic experience of defeat.
