The Bible As It Was: Expanded Edition


In preparing this book, I ended up amassing far more material than could comfortably (or inexpensively) be printed as a normal trade book. It was therefore decided to issue the book in two editions, a regular and an "expanded" edition, the latter to contain full references to past and current scholarly literature as well as a great many interpretive motifs that, for one reason or another, could not be included in the normal edition. (They appear in the expanded edition under the heading "Other Readings.")

This expanded edition is already complete but will not be published by Harvard University Press until a year after the first edition is issued. The official title and price of the book have not yet been established. Nevertheless, I thought it might be worthwhile to include here the table of contents of the expanded edition.
