Biblical passages are often taken out of context and interpreted to support a particular viewpoint or justify a particular action. The Bible Says So! examines the origins of well-known biblical stories - from Adam and Eve, the Flood, and the Tower of Babel, to the birth of Jesus, his resurrection and the writings of St Paul. The book argues that the meaning of these stories becomes apparent when we read between the lines, using the techniques of biblical scholars. The Bible Says So! explores the original intentions of the biblical writers in their particular context and examines key biblical values. The book does justice to the origins of the biblical text, whilst also affirming the relevance of the Bible today. 410 0$aBible world (London, England) 676 $a220.6 700 $aFreed$b Edwin D.$01515281 701 $aRoberts$b Jane F$01515282 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781151503321 996 $aThe Bible says so$93750934 997 $aUNINA
