The Eddas

Do we have a bible? Well, not really. Our history was passed down verbally over the years. The stories of our gods were captured in many poems and sagas. The closest thing that would pass for a bible is probably the Eddas. These are a collection of stories that were captured and translated in the 13th century, although the actual tales predate Christian record. There are numerous books out there that offer their interpretations of the Eddas, but if you want to read them for yourself and draw your own interpretations you can obtain a copy of both the Poetic(Elder) Eddas and the Prose(Younger) Eddas from Project Gutenberg free of charge:

The Elder Eddas of Saemund Sigfusson; and the Younger Eddas of Snorre Sturleson

If nothing else, they are a fun read from a historical prospective. These however are the tales we pattern our lives after. When you boil it all down, what is the bible anyway? A book of tales containing fantastic unbelievable stories of gods and people. Who is to say what is true? Read the Eddas and look past the stories. In your heart you'll feel the truth. It may be the thing that makes you want to explore our faith a little more in depth. A true Odinist will never ask you to leave a faith you are true to however. We believe the act of believing in something is more important than the actual god(s) you worship. We feel the gods are all the same but appear to different cultures in a way that they best understand. So I can ask you to read the Eddas but I can't force you to believe in them.

This is a choice you must make on your own.
