"Is the Bible Fact or Fiction? provides a clear explanation of how to read the Bible both as history and as literature. It selects three very different texts to illustrate the possibilities and limits. The first comes from the first-century-AD description of the early Christian community in the Acts of the Apostles; the next from the second-century-BC dramatic portrayal of the Jewish war of freedom in the book of Maccabees; and the last from the great sixth-century-BC narratives of ancient Israel in the books of Joshua through 2 Kings."--BOOK JACKET.
First sentence: In the land of Israel today, tourism and archaeology are important sectors of the economy, and both are directly linked to avid interest in the Bible and its world.
