We continue with our “Summer of Sperling” series with something new: for the past four years I have been in the enviable position of working with our Scholar-in-Residence, Professor David Sperling, on an update of his 1998 text The Original Torah: The Political Intent of the Bible’s Writers. Many readers of that text, including Professor Sperling’s graduate students, came to the text already having a certain level of proficiency and familiarity with the material that lay readers likely did not have. This updated and expanded revision makes the material accessible to a much wider audience. We expect the book to be available for purchase in the next couple of weeks. In the meantime, we hope you enjoy this peek at the first chapter!
