Title: The Bible for Grown-Ups

Author: Simon Loveday

Narrator: Jonathan Coote

Format: Unabridged

Length: 8 hrs and 2 mins

Language: English

Release date: 12-21-17

Publisher: Audible Studios

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Bibles

Publisher's Summary:

The Bible for Grown-Ups neither requires nor rejects belief. It sets out to help intelligent adults make sense of the Bible - a book that is too large to swallow whole yet too important in our history and culture to spit out.

Why do the creation stories in Genesis contradict each other? Did the Exodus really happen? Was King David a historical figure? Why is Matthew's account of the birth of Jesus so different from Luke's? Why was St Paul so rude about St Peter? Every Biblical author wrote for their own time and their own audience. In short, nothing in the Bible is quite what it seems.

Literary critic Simon Loveday's book - a labour of love that has taken over a decade to write - is a thrilling listen, for Christians and anyone else, which will overturn everything you thought you knew about the Good Book.

The book sets out to apply modern historical scholarship to ...

The book sets out to apply modern historical scholarship to the events of the Bible and to point out the contradictions, historic errors and improbabilities of the Gospels. The book deals with historic events as known today compared with the biblical accounts. There is little or no comment on the message of the Bible. Many well known biblical accounts are shown to be distorted, unlikely or incorrect, essentially because the modern conception of history is very different to that of the writers of the Bible. While not disturbing to faith, the application of modern historiography to the Bible presents a very altered account of events.

the book is an amazing feat of discovery and not of judgement

I have known Simon Loveday for many yearsâso well that I'd hesitate to classify him as anything but scrupulously fair and honest. If I was forced, I'd probably call him a humanist. It certainly seems that he has written this outstanding book from that perspective, claiming that it neither requires, nor demands belief. He declares that his book is about the Bible, not about faith.

My reading of his book certainly confirms this for me. In that sense, the book is an amazing feat of discovery and not of judgement. What he does do, is compare conflicting texts within and between the Old and New Testaments, with great care for linguistic, cultural and historical issues. He does take a critical look at the different statements in both Testaments on retribution and compassion, between damnation and salvation, as well as the differences between heaven on earth or the life eternal.

Simon Loveday makes a careful examination of the ambiguity between the notion of Christ as the Son of God or the Son of Man, as well as identifying some of the confusions created by the contextual use of Greek and Hebrew of the original versions. Naturally he considers the consequences resulting from whether you believe that the New Testament was written for Jews or for Gentiles, for those in Judea or those of the Diaspora.

While he does say that there is âvery little correspondence with historical realityâ, he does emphasize that the the Good Book is full of symbolism, synonyms and metaphors. Simon examines the parts in detail, but concludes that the whole is very significant, notwithstanding the inconsistencies that he points out.

Title: Morality, Law and Justice in the Bible

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Bibles

Publisher's Summary:

Understand what the Bible says about morality, law, and justice.

Begin by exploring modern ideas of justice and morality and how these concepts are similar to and different from biblical notions.

Examine the meaning of the classic term for justice, "Mishpat", and see how law, morality, and justice are discussed in different types of biblical literature, from the early Hebrew writings and traditions through to the New Testament era - over 1,000 years of biblical history. Consider Mosaic Law, as expressed in the Torah (the "Books of Moses"), and then examine how the "legal system" of ancient Israel actually functioned.

Discover why the kings and aristocracy of ancient Israel incurred the anger of these prophets, who were especially furious about the mistreatment of the "widow, the orphan, and the foreigner" in Israelite society. What do these three categories of society refer to? See how ideas about justice go through interesting changes as the Hebrew people face their later biblical existence as a minority under massive world empires (Assyria, Babylon, Persia, Greek, and finally the Roman Empire in the New Testament era).

Finally, consider issues surrounding the "problems" of the teachings of Jesus and Paul in relation to Roman rule and the Christian community, especially when everything changes in the fourth Century AD and Christianity becomes itself a "religion of Empire".

While the Bible gives no simple definition of justice, nor does it dictate a specific societal system, it certainly provides many key ideas about morality, law, and justice that are provocative, often controversial, and ultimately deeply hopeful about what the Bible suggests are God's intentions for human society and the common good.

Picks and chooses, but very interesting content

I am no Torah scholar. This professor has a specialty in the Old Testament, and spends much time there, tracing themes of justice, particularly social justice. I was surprised how humane many of the rules stated there were (though I'm not sure how well that was executed on the ground), even compared to our "enlightened" legal systems today. One can certainly see the lineage to our laws today. He also then walks the discussion up into the New Testament. This was well worth my time.

Title: Letters from Corinth (1 & 2 Thessalonians, Galatians)

Publisher's Summary:

While Paul is in Corinth, A.D. 50 52, he writes three epistles, two to the church in Thessalonica and one to the churches in Galatia.

Paul spends only three Sabbath days in Thessalonica (Acts 17: 2) and he encounters such opposition that as soon as it was night, the brothers sent Paul and Silas away to Berea (Acts 17: 16), lest they be stoned. Very quickly persecution against the Church begins, yet in a mere six months the emerging church in Thessalonica becomes a model to all the believers in Macedonia and Achaia; indeed, their faith in God has become known everywhere (1 Thessalonians 1: 7; 8). In 1 & 2 Thessalonians, Paul addresses questions raised by the believers in Thessalonica, urgent questions asked by what is fast becoming a martyr church."

Galatia is a territory in central Asia Minor, not a city, and Paul writes his epistle as a circular letter to be read to all the churches in the territory. Paul had not planned to travel through Galatia on his second missionary journey, but it was because of an illness (Galatians 4: 13) that he did, sometime in early A.D. 50. Once settled in Corinth in mid-A.D. 50, Paul receives word that the churches in Galatia have adopted a new gospel, different from the one Paul preached. In Galatians, Paul straightens them outin no uncertain terms: Even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned [in other words, tell him to go to hell!] (Galatians 1: 8).

Publisher's Summary:

Saul of Tarsus was one of the most brilliant young men of his generation. He was being groomed for leadership in the Jewish community, and he was destined for greatness. With the birth of the Church and its rapid growth, Saul saw the threat posed by this emerging, radical sect of Judaism, and he took it upon himself to lead a fierce persecution against it. Confronted by the risen and glorified Christ on the Road to Damascus, Saul experiences a stunning conversion: From Saul of Tarsus, the great persecutor of the Church, he becomes St. Paul, the great Apostle to the Gentiles. With his conversion, Paul sets out to evangelize all of Asia Minor (modern day Turkey), a good chunk of Europe, and the 13 of the 27 books of the New Testament are attributed to him. No slouch, our Paul!

Publisher's Summary:

We continue our story of Paul as he begins his 2nd missionary journey, A.D. 50 52, leaving Syrian Antioch and making his way across Asia Minor, into Macedonia and finally arriving in Greece, where he spends 18 months at Corinth. Then its on to his third missionary journey to Ephesus, A.D. 54 57, and finally he is caught in a thicket of legal problems that take him to Rome and an audience before Caesar himself. And what adventures he has along the way! Paul is beaten up, thrown in jail and run out of town on several occasions; he is shipwrecked on the island of Malta; he is bitten by a poisonous snake. And these are only a few of the highlights!

Riepilogo Editore:

La divinità spiritualmente intesa non è presente nell'Antico Testamento. In particolare nella Bibbia non c'è Dio e non c'è culto rivolto a Dio. Ecco perché il titolo afferma che la Bibbia non è un Libro Sacro.

Chi è intervenuto nei secoli modificando la Bibbia? Siamo vittime di un grande inganno?

Recensioni critiche:

"Ignorante, presuntuoso, codardo, persino eretico. Basta fare un rapido giro tra i forum a commento dei libri di Mauro Biglino per imbattersi in queste ed altre poco urbane definizioni. Io, invece, preferisco pensare a lui con un altro aggettivo: destabilizzante."
