Paradox and Contradiction in the Biblical Traditions

The book explores the contrasting worldviews of paradox and contradiction, representing biblical and pagan perspectives, respectively. It argues that paradox, central to the lives of Jews, Christians, and Muslims, encompasses the concepts of creation and covenant. In contrast, the author highlights that paganism is defined by the absence of these ideas, illustrating a fundamental divide in understanding life and existence. Through this lens, the author delves into the implications of these differing philosophies on human experience and belief systems.
