A guide to Biblical stories that have become enmeshed in popular culture
In an increasingly secularized society, the average person is unlikely to have a working knowledge of the Bible, yet a great deal of our culture is built on stories or ideas that come from the Bible. Literature, art, music, language, and even the fabric of our society—such as our justice system—are built on Christian concepts and biblical references. This book provides a fascinating introduction to the Bible's best-known, and most influential, stories. Each chapter gives the full text of a story from the Bible and explains its original significance, then shows how this story has become enmeshed in Western culture. Adam and Eve, the 10 plagues of Egypt, The Prodigal Son, and Mary Magdalene are all included, along with how the Bible has influenced everyone from Shakespeare to Ian McEwan, and The Beatles to Monty Python. Opening up not just the Bible but also much of popular culture, this book is for the everyday reader as well as the churchgoer.
