Description
A feat of modern biblical scholarship, The Bible in Order represents an exciting and radically new concept of the Bible that should prove invaluable to scholars and students of the Bible alike. Using the text of The Jerusalem Bible, editor Joseph Rhymer has arranged the books in the order in which they were originally written (and not as they have come down to us through the centuries). Through this new arrangement, the reader is better able to appreciate how the
Bible was written and to trace the development of the religious experience which stimulates it. If we are to understand the books written over a thousand years of history and realize some connection and progression inside of them, we shall do it - postulates Rhymer - unless we meet the books against the historical background of the ancient world at the time each was written. To this end, he furnishes a helpful Commentary and, where necessary, explains in detail the reason for dividing some of the books into more than one piece.... In sum, here is an intriguing and eminently useful tool for anyone at all interested in the Bible and biblical theology. --- from book's dustjacket - from Amzon
