Primal Religion and the Bible: William Robertson Smith and His Heritage - Biblical Studies & Old Testament Research (Library of Hebrew Bible Series #246) - Perfect for Theology Students, Religious Scholars, and Bible Study Groups

Product Description

This important study of the published and unpublished writings of Scotland's most brilliant and controversial nineteenth-century theologian focuses on his concern to situate biblical religion within the context of the primal religions of Israel's neighbours. The book explores the implications of the relationship between the Christian faith and primal religion. Robertson Smith has still a contribution to make to contemporary discussion of the phenomenology of the Christian faith and Christian responses to religious pluralism.
