Cultural memory, communication and being human

About the author

Professor John Rogerson was formerly at the department of Theology and Religious Studies at the University of Sheffield and is Canon Emeritus of Sheffield Cathedral. He has published many books and is the editor of The Oxford Illustrated History of the Bible and co-author of The Old Testament World.

Summary

How should Christians approach the Old Testament? Should we use it to reconstruct what people believed several millennia ago? Or should we ask what the Old Testament says to us today and consider how it addresses today's world? Rogerson firmly believes the latter.
