Exploring the cognitive differences between the Hebrew mind and Western thought, this book delves into a long-standing debate in biblical studies. It examines how cultural contexts shape understanding and interpretation, challenging traditional views and encouraging a deeper analysis of biblical texts through a fresh lens. The author aims to clarify misconceptions and highlight the unique perspectives that the Hebrew tradition offers to contemporary discussions.

The most common English translations of the Bible often sound like a single, somewhat archaic voice. Using historic, linguistic, anthropological, and theological sources, this title helps us distinguish between the Jewish Bible's voices - the mythic, the historical, the prophetic, the theological, and the legal.
