The Bible Now

For millennia, people have used the Bible as a touchstone on important social and political questions, but the use has too often been lop-sided, without a balanced understanding of the Bibles overall teaching. Friedman and Dolansky offer an incisive, even-handed examination of what the Bible says or does not say about some of the most hotly contested issues of our time. In shedding new light on some of todays most passionate disputes, the authors reveal how the Bible is frequently misunderstood, misquoted, mistranslated, and misused.
