Summary
WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE
In God: A Biography, Jack Miles delivers an extraordinary literary and theological exploration of the Hebrew Bible. Rather than treating God solely as a divine being, Miles presents Him as a complex literary character whose evolution unfolds throughout scripture. From Creator to Lawgiver, from Warrior to Father, God’s narrative becomes an intricate, dramatic character arc that mirrors human struggles with power, love, justice, and mercy. Miles’s scholarship is both profound and accessible, offering readers fresh insight into ancient texts while prompting thoughtful reflection on the human experience with the divine. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, this work is celebrated for its originality and depth, perfect for readers who appreciate literary analysis, religious scholarship, and intellectual discovery. A must-have for scholars, seekers, and those curious about the literary artistry of sacred scripture.
