ISBN10: 0679743685, ISBN13: 9780679743682, [publisher: Vintage Books] Softcover What sort of a 'person' is God? What is his 'life story'? Is it possible to approach him not as an object of religious reverence, but as the protagonist of the world's greatest book-as a character who possesses all the depths, contradictions, and ambiguities of a Hamlet? This is the task that Jack Miles-a former Jesuit trained and religious studies and Near Eastern languages-accomplishes with such brilliance and originality in God: A Biography. Using the Hebrew Bible as his text, Miles shows us a God who evolves through his relationship with man, the image who in time becomes his rival. Here is the Creator who nearly destroys his chief creation; the bloodthirsty warrior and the protector of the downtrodden; the lawless law-giver; the scourge and the penitent. Profoundly learned, stylishly written, the resulting work illuminates God and man alike and returns us to the Bible with a sense of discovery and wonder.
