N.T. Wright on the Bible

N.T. Wright, Simply Christian (London: SPCK, 2006), 148:

‘It’s a big book, full of big stories with big characters. They have big ideas (not least about themselves) and make big mistakes. It’s about God, and greed, and grace; about life, lust, laughter and loneliness. It’s about birth, beginnings and betrayal; about siblings, squabbles and sex; about power and prayer and prison and passion.

‘And that’s only Genesis.’
