Bible Enigma 14

One of the greatest contributions of modern biblical studies is having discovered, in a large part of the sacred text, what is called “the author's intention”, that is, what were the reasons that led him to write and what message he intended to convey. Thanks to this, many erroneous conclusions that were drawn from the Bible have been overcome. In the different issues of ENIGMAS DE LA BIBLIA, Ariel Álvarez Valdés tries to bring readers, in a simple, easy and enjoyable way, the new biblical studies, as an aid for the interpretation of the sacred text. On this occasion he develops, among others, the following topics: Was there a miracle that went wrong for Jesus? Were Jesus' disciples armed? Why was Saint Paul accused of being a thief? How did the prophets of Israel come about? Did Jesus Christ rise on the third day? At the end of each chapter, he adds a series of questions that can be used for personal or community reflection in schools, parishes and Bible groups.
