About this ebook
Sin Concepts explores the evolving definitions of sin, examining how these concepts have been shaped by historical context, religious teachings, and power structures.
The book argues that sin is not a static, divinely ordained concept but rather a dynamic social construct reflecting a society's values and power dynamics.
Intriguingly, what constitutes a sin can vary drastically across different eras and cultures; behaviors considered sinful in one context might be acceptable or even virtuous in another.
