Evolution of the Word

By presenting the New Testament books in the order they were written bestselling Bible scholar Marcus Borg reveals how spiritually and politically radical the early Jesus movement began and how it slowly became domesticated. <em>Evolution of the Word </em>is an incredible value: not only are readers getting a deeply insightful new book from the author of <em>Speaking Christian </em>and <em>Jesus</em> but also the full-text of the New Testament--and one of the only Bibles organized in chronological order and including explanatory annotations that give readers a more informed understanding of the Scripture that is so close to their hearts and lives. <br />
