“When we assume the religious significance of the Bible, as I believe we should, our instinct may be to approach the Bible’s stories immediately in search of a moral landing place,” writes Meghan Larissa Good in The Bible Unwrapped. “The trouble is that Biblical stories are not fundamentally moral tales. The Bible is full of stories of real human beings making difficult choices in complex situations. Sometimes the choices are good; sometimes they are bad; sometimes it’s hard to tell the difference. And somehow in the midst of all these kinds of choices, God keeps showing up.”
