Riassunto

A selection of the best known and most important passages from the Bible, to emphasise the power and beauty of their language and content.

This selection of well-known and well-loved passages will include some of the pivotal scenes from the Bible – creation, Noah’s ark, the Crucifixion and Resurrection – but also the best of the poetic and inspirational passages from the Psalms and the prophets, as well as from the New Testament letters.

It will not offer an overview of the Bible as such, but aims to enable even the casual reader to experience the literary and spiritual power of this most influential book, without a reference tome or theology degree to tell them where to look for it.

Su questo libro

L'autore:

Owen Collins has compiled many books, including our Definitive Commentary on the Bible and Speeches that Changed the World.

Dalla quarta di copertina:

This book includes all the best of spiritual writing sown the ages, both poetic and exegetical.

This volume will not seek to summarise spiritual writing through the ages but instead to pick out those passages that stick in the mind but which can be so hard to find amidst the great volume of even one individual's life works.
