Sin
What is sin? Is it simply wrongdoing? Why do its effects linger over time? This book shows how changing conceptions of sin and forgiveness lay at the very heart of the biblical tradition. Spanning nearly two thousand years, it demonstrates how sin, once conceived of as a physical burden, becomes, over time, eclipsed by economic metaphors.
