Sacred Flaws

SACRED FLAWS offers a distinctive approach to Bible commentary accessible to the beginning student, yet thoughtprovoking for the seasoned scholar. Through a close look at the central Biblical figures – Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, and others – Richard A. Cohen reveals how their human flaws bring new depth and meaning to the narrative. By exploring these imperfections, the book invites readers to connect with the Bible on a deeply personal level. The result is a fresh, compelling perspective that shows how the characters’ flaws can inspire growth, self-understanding, and a stronger bond with our tradition.
