Specifikacia Face Of Water Ruden SarahPaperback / softback
A dazzling reconsideration of the original languages and texts of the Bible, in both the Old and the New Testaments, from the acclaimed scholar and translator of Classical literature ("The best translation of the Aeneid, certainly the best of our time" --Ursula Le Guin; "The first translation since Dryden that can be read as a great English poem in itself" --Garry Wills, The New York Review of Books) and author of Paul Among the People ("Astonishing . . . Superb" --Booklist, starred review).In The Face of Water, Sarah Ruden brilliantly and elegantly explains and celebrates the Bible's writings. Singling out the most famous passages, such as the Genesis creation story, the Ten Commandments, the Lord's Prayer, and the Beatitudes, Ruden reexamines and retranslates from the Hebrew and Greek what has been obscured and misunderstood over time.
