This guy took legalism to another level.
A. J. Jacobs decided to see what would happen if he followed the Bible as literally as possible. If it was in the bible, he was adhering to it, including more obscure details of Old Testament laws, which ultra orthodox Jews might follow: leaving side hair uncut, dwelling in huts on certain holidays, strict dietary routines.
The results are captured in his new book, The Year of Living Biblically: One Man’s Humble Quest to Follow the Bible as Literally as Possible
