Description

In GodStories, H. Stephen Shoemaker uses the rabbinic way of storytelling to represent biblical narratives both ancient and modern. Multiple meanings emerge as readers wrestle with these ancient texts, which are terrible and wonderful in their exploration of the human condition. The author captures biblical stories and characters in a set of interpretive essays that span the Bible from Genesis to Revelation.
