Leading us chapter by chapter through the Hebrew Bible's most important stories--from the Creation and the Tree of Knowledge through the Exodus from Egypt and the journey to the Promised Land--Kugel shows how a group of anonymous ancient interpreters radically transformed the Bible and made it into the book that has come down to us today.
