About This Item
Oxford : Oxford University Press, 2001. First Edition. Softcover. Near fine paperback copy; edges very slightly dust-dulled and nicked. Remains particularly and surprisingly well-preserved overall; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Physical description: xvi, 395 pages, 16 unnumbered pages of plates : illustrations (some color), portraits ; 24 cm. Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary: The Bible has been in continuous use for nearly 2000 years and the larger part - the Hebrew Bible or Old Testament - is much older. It has played a central role throughout western history, as a source of conflict at many levels, and inspirer of heroic acts of witness both individually and collectively. Here a distinguished team of scholars presents an authoritative account of that story, richly illustrated, and bringing to bear the latest findings. Subject: Bible - History - Criticism - Versions - Biblical studies - criticism & exegesis ; Christianity ; History of religion. Genre: Illustrated, text.
