Synopsis Books of the Bible by : John H. Hayes

Over 300,000 people have studied Books of the Bible. Now, the study has been updated, based on the New Revised Standard Version of the Bible. Using a workbook style, Books of the Bible allows you to discover the biblical text on your own or with a group. This 26-session book-by-book survey covers all the books in the Bible. Designed for persons who are not well-acquainted with the Bible, this resource is clearly written and easy-to-use, drawing the reader into the biblical text. Although you will "page through" the entire Bible by the end of the study, Books of the Bible only deals with major themes.

Books of the Bible has informational articles about major sections of the Bible, and review pages at the end of major portions of the study. Questions for group discussion are included in all 26 sessions. In addition, there is an article for the leader and a pronunciation guide at the end of the study. 26 sessions / 60 minutes

Synopsis Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament by : G. K. Beale

Readers of the New Testament often encounter quotes or allusions to Old Testament stories and prophecies that are unfamiliar or obscure. In order to fully understand the teachings of Jesus and his followers, it is important to understand the large body of Scripture that preceded and informed their thinking. Leading evangelical scholars G. K. Beale and D. A. Carson have brought together a distinguished team to provide readers with a comprehensive commentary on Old Testament quotations, allusions, and echoes that appear from Matthew through Revelation. College and seminary students, pastors, scholars, and interested lay readers will want to add this unique commentary to their reference libraries. Contributors Craig L.

Synopsis Biblical Theology by : Geerhardus Vos

The aim of this book is no less than to provide an account of the unfolding of the mind of God in history, through the successive agents of his special revelation. Vos handles this under three main divisions: the Mosaic epoch of revelation, the prophetic epoch of revelation, and the New Testament. Such an historical approach is not meant to supplant the work of the systematic theologian; nevertheless, the Christian gospel is inextricably bound up with history, and the biblical theologian thus seeks to highlight uniqueness of each biblical document in that succession. The rich variety of Scripture is discovered anew as the progressive development of biblical themes is explicated. To read these pages--the fruit of Vos' 39 years of teaching biblical theology at Princeton - is to appreciate the late John Murray's suggestion that Geerhardus Vos was the most incisive exegete in the English-speaking world of the twentieth century.
