The making of the Bible : from the first fragments to sacred scripture
Konrad Schmid (Author), Jens Schröter (Author), Peter Lewis (Translator)
"The Bible is full of ancient texts long predating the assembly of Judaism's and Christianity's sacred books. Why these texts, and how were they transformed on the journey from folk tale to holy writ? Konrad Schmid and Jens Schröter unearth the history, in the process overturning assumptions about the relationship between the Old and New Testaments"-- Provided by publisher
