4. Do I need prior knowledge of the Bible or theology?

No prior theology or biblical study is required—it’s intended for a broad audience, from novices to experts.
Takes an interdisciplinary approach—drawing on archaeology, political theory, and historical context—so curiosity matters more than background.
Encourages critical thinking about narrative formation, community identity, and survival strategies rather than doctrinal acceptance.
Position taken allows appreciation regardless of religious stance—whether religious, secular, or academic audiences.
Ideal for anyone interested in history, religion, politics, literature, or cultural memory.
