I'd recommend also reading Go Set a Watchman to find out if Scout's understanding of people actually does improve with age.ken_sylvania wrote:To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee."He might have hurt me a little," Atticus conceded, "but son, you'll understand folks a little better when you're older."

I am presently reading, "The Jews in the Time of Jesus", by Stephen M Wylen
He is a Jewish rabbi, writing as a historian. Enlightening.

I'm reading Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption by Bryan Stevenson. This is by the founder of Equal Justice Initiatve, a legal practice dedicated to defending the poor and wrongly condemned. There are many stories in it about abuse and wrong condemnation in the US legal system. It's very moving.

Have your read The Life and Times of Jesus, the Messiah? That's his magnum opus. It was originally published in several books, but you can get it as a reprint in one book (about a thousand pages). He has tremendous insight.gcdonner wrote:The Temple: It's Ministry and Service by Alfred Edersheim
