DESCRIPTION:
Does the truth of the Bible exist indeed, when this book is at the same time full of contradictions, miracles and mysteries? Josef Imbach pursues this question by examining the holy scriptures, biblical authors and the tradition. Imbach is certain that biblical texts can only be understood when the reader is aware not only of the intentions of the authors, but also of the historical, religious-historical and cultural conditions that underlie them. Concise, informative and always with a pinch of humor.
