Hoffman walks the reader through dozens of mistranslations, misconceptions, and other misunderstandings about the Bible. In forty short, straightforward chapters, he covers morality, life-style, theology, and biblical imagery, including: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e *The Bible doesn't call homosexuality a sin, and it doesn't advocate for the one-man-one-woman model of the family that has been dubbed biblical. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e *The Bible's famous beat their swords into plowshares is matched by the militaristic, beat your plowshares into swords. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e *The often-cited New Testament quotation God so loved the world is a mistranslation, as are the titles Son of Man and Son of God. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e *The Ten Commandments don't prohibit killing or coveting. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhat does the Bible say about violence? About the Rapture? About keeping kosher? About marriage and divorce?
