La Biblia es el texto mas venerado por los cristianos y tambien el mas conocido; pero, paradojicamente, quizas es tambien el menos comprendido. El P. William A. Anderson proporciona al lector las bases para entender su contexto cultural e historico, para "escuchar" las tradiciones orales y para "encontrarse" con los autores sagrados y lograr asi una mejor comprension del mismo. Al tener mas presente la Palabra de Dios en su vida, su relacion con Dios se hara tambien, si cabe, mas profunda. Introduction to the Bible: Overview, Historical Context, and Cultural Perspectives Introduction to the Bible, the first book in the series, lays the groundwork for readers to understand the Bible. Fr. William A. Anderson helps readers understand historical and cultural contexts, "hear" oral traditions, and "meet" the writers of the books of the Bible.
The Bible is ever ancient and ever new--a compilation of many books from unique periods of antiquity that makes it "a library within a library." As the most revered of Christian texts, the Bible is the best known and most sold, but perhaps the least understood book in the world. Father William A. Anderson lays groundwork for the reader to understand the historical and cultural contexts, "hear" the oral traditions, and "meet" the writers of each book of the Bible.
Anderson explores the special form of metatheatre that we admire in Plautus, by which he undermines the assumptions of his Greek 'models' and replaces them with a new, confident Roman comedy.
