∴
While Lightfoot’s work can sometimes read like a miniature textbook, it is nonetheless a fascinating look at the history of the world’s most talked about book. It is packed full of facts and evidence, allowing the reader to draw their own conclusions, but not allowing generalities and rumors to go unaddressed. It forces you to examine the truth of the Bible’s history, and to put aside arguments based on urban legend or hearsay. What facts do we have, and what conclusions can be drawn from them? If you are a human being, then I’m sure you have an opinion about the Bible. Do yourself a favor and read this book, because then when you see me at the coffee house we can talk facts and maybe even an opinion or two.
