Important Books
Nov 12th, 2008 by Ben
I love books I’ve really read, with post-its and pencil all over them.
A list, then…
The most important book I read this year (third year of college):
- Resurrection and Moral Order: An Outline for Evangelical Ethics by Oliver O’Donovan.
The most important book I read in second year:
- The Art of Biblical Narrative by Robert Alter.
The most important book I read in first year:
- Snorkelling and Diving in Oman (Arabian Heritage Guides) by Rod Salm and Robert Baldwin.
All three are fine reads.

Yes, Art of Biblical Narrative.
Someone really cool recommended that to you?
Did you get like his dark humour in Art of Biblical Poetry?
