Notă biografică
John Rogerson gave this text as a series of lectures to friends in 2018, and it is the last of his lectures because he died later that year. If this book is your first encounter with John Rogerson, then you can be assured that you are in the company of a very great internationally celebrated scholar, who spent his life studying the biblical traditions of scholarship and the history and interpretation of the Bible. John was also an Anglican priest. During his long career he showed how the Bible, carefully handled, has something profound to say to our lives today, drawing on biblical scholarship, theology, philosophy, sociology, politics, ethics and literature.
He continued this work in retirement and served and taught the small community at Beauchief Abbey, where he brought his gifts and knowledge into service for this little local Anglican church in Sheffield. His friendship was something that many people found transformative, and this friendship, grounded in John's experience and reflection on the Christian offer, is something that continues to resonate very deeply with his friends and readers following his death. We created the Beauchief Abbey Press to allow others to share the remarkable conversations and invitations that came through working with and alongside John. If you enjoy this book you will find others by John, such as The Kingdom of Heaven, Perspectives on the Passion, and The Poet-Prophets of the Old Testament, that may interest you further, as well as several collections of his remarkable sermons.
