Would our individual perceptions of ourselves be the same without this influence? Difficult to say. The world’s three great faiths – Judaism, Christianity, and Islam – are all rooted in this extraordinary book, a book which has outsold every other and whose influence on our thoughts, culture, literature, and history is incalculable. The New Testament takes matters forward into the birth of the modern world and the foundation of Christianity. It also contains a carefully preserved genealogy of families and tribes, and a collection of some of the world’s most memorable stories.

The Old Testament is an historical record of a nomadic people’s wanderings over the Middle East and North Africa followed by their settlement in Judaea. Assembled over several centuries, it is not simply a testament of faith. One of the earliest written records is, of course, the Bible. The patriarchal principle had won the battle for social dominance. Archaeological evidence points to earlier matriarchal cultures which preceded the pervasive patriarchal bias, but by the time written literature began, this matriarchal culture had been suppressed, pushed to the margins into folktale, superstition, and myth. Western history and culture have their roots deep in the Judaeo-Graeco-Roman tradition, and it is a strongly patriarchal tradition.
