With the breathtaking vision of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam as three interrelated faces of the same monotheism, Schatz returns to the mystical roots of orthodox religion to read the Bible with the assumptions of its original authors.
Here is the dawn of a new age in Bible scholarship. With the breath-taking vision of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam as three inter-related faces of the same monotheism, Howard Schatz dares to return to the mystical roots of orthodox religion, and to read the Bible with the assumptions of its original authors. In prose that is always clear, often beautiful, and eminently quotable, and with a numerology carefully explained to uncover the science behind traditional Kabbalism, Schatz employs his own comfortable grasp of modern science to do justice to our common ancestors.
