520 | |a Daniel Berrigan's latest book is a mixture of biblical commentary, current social and political condemnation, and heightened language. Ostensibly the book uses 1 and 2 Kings to show how kings and prophets manipulated their gods for political ends, and how politicians and religious figures of today do likewise. Before the preface there is a note that Berrigan uses the NRSV and NAB, though they are “sometimes slightly altered” (p. v), “[a]nd sometimes he is rendering the biblical text in his own poetic equivalent, or creating a rich interplay of different biblical versions” (p. v). In fact, Berrigan's translation is often so free, his subsequent commentary is based on his own text, not the Bible. | ||
