"This wide-ranging book is an intellectual history of how informed readers read their Bibles over the past four hundred years, from the first translations in the sixteenth century to the emergence of fundamentalism in the twentieth century. In an astonishing display of erudition, David Katz recreates the response of readers from different eras by examining the 'horizon of expectations' that provided the lens through which they read."--Jacket.
First sentence: The Bible tells us that history has a beginning and an end, so it is only natural that the history of the Bible should be structured upon the same model.
