A review by jrmarr
The Year of Living Biblically by A.J. Jacobs

3.0

Well researched and written, this book had moments of great interest. I'm not sure I fully appreciated the obsessiveness of the author, but I don't know whether you could write a book like this without being at least a little bit obsessed. I really appreciated learning more about the historical contexts of the passages discussed, and how particular communities have interpreted them throughout the ages.
