Religious Inventions. Ancient Mediterranean Practice and the Study of Religion, Paperback

Ancient writings, including the Jewish and Christian Bibles, reflect lived human experiences rather than mere dogma. Religious Inventions investigates the social contexts of these writings, exploring how modern views on religion can illuminate ancient texts and challenge our understanding of both past and present beliefs.
