About this audiobook
We are living in an era where the Bible is not just read regularly by Christians, but with the advent of social media, it seems almost everyone nowadays is sharing their own interpretation of it. However, despite the considerable time many individuals spend reading the scriptures, a significant number overlook or are unaware of the fundamental rules or principles of interpreting ancient texts correctly. This oversight can lead to misinterpretations of the biblical text with far-reaching consequences.
On the other side of the spectrum, scholars, including Christian scholars, dedicate a lifetime to learning how to read and interpret ancient texts like the Bible before daring to present their ideas and insights publicly.
Similarly, the Jewish people, religious and non-religious alike, have been studying the Bible for thousands of years, sometimes beginning as early as age three, and have developed unique interpretative methods distinctive to Jewish people.
Dr. Eitan Bar, a Jewish-Christian scholar with advanced degrees in Bible, apologetics, and theology, is a unique combination. As a native Hebrew speaker and Bible scholar, he combines his Jewish background with his Christian education and faith to offer an accessible guide to understanding the Bible "like a Jew."
In his work, Dr. Bar shares eight fundamental yet profound rules or principles on how to read the Bible and understand what it actually says. He presents these principles in an easy-to-understand language enriched with relevant examples.
