About this product

Product Information

What if the Bible wasn't meant to be read as 'revelation'? The Philosophy of Hebrew Scripture proposes a new framework for reading the Bible, transforming forever our understanding of what the stories of Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, Moses and David and the speeches of Isaiah and Jeremiah, were meant to teach.

Reviews
"Hazony is on a mission to put the greatest book on earth at the heart of academic study ... [He] is a modern-day Jerusalem shepherd who is challenging authority - and has no idea how things will turn out." --David Suissa, Jewish Journal of Greater Los Angeles, "Hazony does not write simply to persuade us to agree or disagree with his interpretation of any particular story. Reviewers who think so do him an injustice. Instead, Hazony wants to persuade us that to read the Bible is to engage in a necessary argument over how to build a good society." --Diana Muir Appelbaum, Jewish Ideas Daily, 'Not only is The Philosophy of Hebrew Scripture a must for philosophy scholars, but also for every thinking Jew who wants to understand and appreciate the Torah from an intellectual perspective. Written in an accessible style, it casts new light on biblical characters and narrative, encouraging us to use our minds to understand its psychological and philosophical complexity.' Doreen Wachmann, Jewish Telegraph, 'It would be hard to exaggerate the importance of Hazony's splendid work. This bold attempt to distil the intellectual essence of biblical wisdom deserves the widest possible audience and the most careful attention, regardless of religious denomination or lack of it, from philosophers.' Standpoint Magazine, "His argument is... provocative: The Hebrew Bible does not conform to the commonly accepted dichotomy of reason versus revelation... Rewarding for biblical studies or philosophy insiders who are receptive to new ideas." --Publishers Weekly, "A paradigm-shifting work of immense significance." --Lord Jonathan Sacks, Chief Rabbi of the British Commonwealth, Advance Praise: "A deep and lucid investigation of the connections between the two chief strands of our intellectual history. A great achievement." --Steven Pinker, Harvard College Professor of Psychology, Harvard University, and the author of How the Mind Works and The Better Angels of our Nature, 'As an approach to the Old Testament as philosophy, worthy to be placed alongside any 'reasoned' later work it is something of a masterpiece.'
