Thematically, the volume considers the possible impact of religious experiences on biblical according to the biblical authors Israel experienced God as speaking and acting on its behalf, occasionally in visible, audible, and tangible ways. Indeed, scripture presents itself as beginning with epiphanies of the divine. Andy Angel, Richard H.
