Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What if both Christianity and Rabbinic Judaism have built authority on claims the Hebrew Bible itself never makes?A Better Myth returns to the Hebrew Bible to test inherited claims about covenant, messiah, Torah, Scripture, and religious authority. Treating "myth" not as falsehood, but as the shared story by which communities understand God, identity, obligation, and the world, Tov Neeman asks whether later religious systems remain faithful to what was first written.Beginning at Sinai, the book argues that the covenant given to Israel is public, written, enduring, and not subject to replacement by later authority. From there, it examines some of Christianity's most familiar claims, including messianic proof texts, the suffering servant, the "new covenant," Jesus as messiah, Paul's authority, blood atonement, and the transformation of a Jewish renewal movement into a Gentile religion centered on belief and salvation.The book also turns inward, asking whether rabbinic tradition, halakhah, Oral Torah, and mystical interpretation can at times place later human authority above the written covenant. With gratitude for Jewish survival and preservation, it still asks a difficult question: when does interpretation become addition?This is not a devotional defense of Christianity, nor a simple rejection of Judaism. It is a provocative invitation to return to the Hebrew Bible, test inherited assumptions, and reconsider the claims of Church and Synagogue in light of the written voice of Israel's God.For Jewish readers, Christian readers, Messianic readers, Hebrew Roots readers, Karaites, Noahides, and anyone wrestling with Jesus, Torah, covenant, and religious authority, A Better Myth offers a bold call back to what was written. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
