David Bentley Hart’s new book offers a mind-bending translation of the New Testament. Hart is a scholar, theologian, and cultural commentator, and he has one essential argument: God is the foundation of our being and that every human life has its beginning and its end in eternity. In this new translation, he works to be as bare-bones and prosaic as he can. There is no watering-down or compromises, writes The Atlantic, and what he offers is a beautiful paradox of the New Testament.
