Bible Riddle 17

This book, like the others in the same series, attempts to make known in an informative way the modern and current exegesis as it is presented by the new studies and commentaries of the Catholic Church. One of the greatest contributions of modern biblical studies is to have 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 transmit. Thanks to this, many erroneous conclusions that were drawn from the Bible have been overcome. In a clear, simple and enjoyable way, these pages try to offer readers the necessary tools so that everyone can better understand the biblical message. Each topic is approached from four aspects: historical, literary, theological and spiritual. Consequently, the book contains a rich contribution for all those who want to update themselves and who do not have the possibility of reading technical books on theology, or taking Bible courses. On this occasion the author develops, among others, the following topics: Does the Bible tell of a case of euthanasia? What was the childhood of John the Baptist like? Who were the men crucified with Jesus? Who wrote the book of Revelation?
