Sin A history
Gary A. Anderson
- U.S.A. Yale University Press 1985
- 253tr. hardcover 24cm
An extraordinary piece of detective work. Anderson shows how the central way of representing - and conceiving of - sin changed dramatically within biblical times, and how this change in turn came to be elaborated in later Judaism and Christianity. This is an extremely important, indeed, mind-changing book for anyone interested in the history of these two religions.
