The Heart of the Bible

Volume One: The Literature of the Hebrew People

Jeannie B. Thomson Davies,

About this book

Originally published in 1933, from the preface: "The aim of this particular venture is to present the writings now collected in the volume called the Bible in an order approaching that in which they came into being. The hope is that a considerable amount of both the Old and New Testaments may be read in a fresh setting, so that questions about inconsistencies in the Bible, or about its varying levels of morality, or about its uneven value for religious education can no longer be fired as poison darts to attack its life and influence…. This is an attempt to combine reading the Bible with learning to understand it." Of particular relevance to those interested in religious studies, today it can be read in its historical context.

This book is a re-issue originally published in 1933. The language used and views portrayed are a reflection of its era and no offence is meant by the Publishers to any reader by this re-publication.
