Wow, I love this edit, I’m agnostic myself but that seems rather neat. I remember reading about how Warren Buffet, despite not being particularly religious, has read the Bible like 7 times or something. I always found that rather interesting. Thanks!

If you do read it, try to spot the point where the authorship switches. It's believed that at some point after the original author's death, a later cleric decided to expand the original work. The change in writing style is extremely apparent.

After reading it once, find a good reference that points out the threads between the old and new testaments. Taking into consideration the time between the writings, these are amazing.
