Popis: This chapter finds biblical scholar and ordained minister Allen Dwight Callahan exploring the decidedly “humanistic” sensibilities of an unlikely humanist text, the Bible. Arguing that, “we need not be judged by the Bible. It is we who judge,” Callahan’s chapter is a provocative rehabilitation of the Bible making it possible for humanism to treat it as a cultural resource, an artifact as opposed to an authority.
