Categories:
"Full of such insights, which deserve and need to be pondered by both literary critics and Biblical scholars of the traditional sort."—John Barton, London Review of Books
" His book is easy, intimate and direct, partly because he has digested all his learning, partly because his dissatisfaction with his predecessors' solutions never belittles them, and partly because his own readings are those of a cultivated contemporary who, though respectful, is not awestruck. Whatever he turns to, he illuminates."—The New Yorker
"His urbane style, shrewd discernment, subtle humor, and above all, his passion for words lead us to listen in fresh ways."— Walter Brueggemann, Theology Today

"Josipovici's response to the Bible is not only highly intelligent but considerate."—Denis Donoghue, Times Literary Supplement
"Makes for fascinating reading. . . . In particular, the way in which Professor Josipovici uses modern writers such as Proust, Joyce and Thomas Mann to establish and illuminate his points is fascinating."—Joseph Robinson, Church Times
"Full of such insights, which deserve and need to be pondered by both literary critics and Biblical scholars of the traditional sort."—John Barton, London Review of Books
"This is a book to be grateful for: thoughtful, deeply felt, and beautifully written."—David Lodge, Independent
"Beautifully written, it is hard to describe the pleasure it gives."—Rabbi Dr. Jonathan Magonet, Jewish Chronicle
"This is a beautifully written and luminous book, which has as much to offer the reader interested in the religious 'message' of the Bible as it has to contribute to the revival of interest in the Bible now observable in the literary world."—John Barton, Theological Book Review
