A History of the Bible: The Book and Its Faiths by John Barton [Kindle/Audible]

I “read” most of this book listening to Audible, though I wish I had had the opportunity to read it on the Kindle. I don’t absorb as much audibly.

But this is a fascinating book… very clear presentation of the state of the known history of the composition of the bible(s). I may go back and read a few chapters again, to catch some bits I missed.

I have been on a kick to learn about this history for a while, after I started seeing the Data over Dogma guy on Tiktok and then on podcast. They clever ways they can tease out the history through forensic and linguistic analysis is very cool.
