The Torah and Its God

A Humanist Inquiry

  • 1 Want to read

""What remains of the Torah when we openly acknowledge that its God exists in the human mind alone, having been created by human authors as the means, in their time, of inspiring a people toward its highest ends?" So opens the author's humanist inquiry into the Torah and its God. What follows, based on modern scholarship regarding the Torah's human authorship, is a detailed, respectful, and innovative reading of these first five books of the Hebrew Bible."--BOOK JACKET.
