Description

« How the Bible Grew » is a comprehensive and accessible exploration of the historical development of the Christian and Jewish scriptures. Written by Frank Grant Lewis, this work traces the long and complex journey of the Bible from its earliest oral traditions and ancient manuscripts to the finalized versions used today. Lewis provides a scholarly yet readable account of how various books were composed, gathered, and eventually recognized as sacred canon.The book examines the textual evolution of both the Old and New Testaments, highlighting the cultural and religious contexts that shaped their formation. By investigating the work of early scribes, translators, and religious councils, Lewis sheds light on the literary history that underlies one of the most influential texts in human civilization. Readers will find detailed discussions on the various versions of the Bible, including the Septuagint and the Vulgate, and how these translations influenced subsequent interpretations.Whether for students of theology or those interested in the history of religion, « How the Bible Grew » offers valuable insights into the preservation and transmission of biblical literature. It remains a significant contribution to biblical criticism and the study of religious history, demystifying the process by which separate writings were unified into a single, cohesive volume.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
