Words That Changed History

In Words That Changed History, a father and son will take you on a journey of words that can affect lives. In this book, you will read fresh perspectives on some of the most familiar stories of the Bible, like the creation, the prodigal son, the second coming, and judgment day. For each of these narratives, the authors interpret how one word can alter your understanding of the text. Spit, coal, midrash, four-out-up, and Judas: read how these words can bring new life to ancient stories. The narratives of the Bible started conversations thousands of years ago; this book is an invitation to reconsider these words.
