Bible means book, and THE Bible has undoubtedly been the most influential book in Western history, one of the pillars, along with Greek philosophy, of Western self-understanding. But it has become so overlaid with doctrinal understandings, has been so canonized and so elevated, that it is too often not "read" in the way that good books ought to be read. We will, therefore, read healthy selections from the Old and New Testaments less for their strictly theological content than in an attempt to understand the roots of surprisingly modern ideas of history, ethics, social relations, government, the rights and responsibilities of individuals, and the relation of cultures to each other. What is the Bible's sense of the nature of mankind? What is the meaning of justice or the good? What are our freedoms and our constraints? We will pay particular attention to Genesis (as setting out a formative conception of humanity); to Exodus (as an account of the narrative of a people and the idea of history as a whole); to Deuteronomy (as a reflection on the place of the individual in relation to general principles); to the stories of the first kings of Israel, Saul and David (as a meditation on government and the place of religion in it); to some of the prophets (in an attempt to discover the limitations and possibilities of speech itself); to Job and Ecclesiastes (as testing the limits of skepticism and even heterodoxy), and to a couple of the Gospels (for a look at religious and perhaps even political revolution and, in the Gospels' revisiting of the Old Testament, the problem of inheriting a tradition and interpreting it).
