The Mysterious Furies of the God in a Tent

Every reader of the Bible willingly steps into the long history of religious story and sacred thought by encountering the sacral nature of holy words and their powerful impact on self, thought and belief. Such was the experience of a famous neuro-scientist who, in the last months of his life, despite his long separation from his Jewish faith, is persuaded to read the Hebrew Bible together with a sympathetic Rabbi. God's dramatic personality in the furies of his words and deeds astound him. Every aspect of his personal history rebels; against the stories of the Almighty Father- his own paternal family life in Germany, his own family history, his scientific and philosophic studies of the human brain and consciousness, his love for his son. This is the story of the mysterious powers of words and The Word.
