I want you to learn every book of the bible, like I'm doing, and I'll try to make it easy for you. First, the stories are written by ten-year-old Tracy Jeanette. You may know her from other adventures. She tours back in time with her gang of animal friends, chaperoned of course by the Old Man. Who in turn is sometimes accompanied by Sklo. Second, I've done a little editing. Some of the Bible books are just too darn big to cover in one adventure. So I divided those books into several Parts. And the Parts aren't in order. It's okay! Don't worry. Bible books aren't like novels or movies where you need a spoiler alert. You probably know the end anyway. There are a lot of topics that tie together, but they don't have to be told serially. Matthew Part A, for instance, is where the gang goes back to see Jesus baptized. Way after He was born. Then they check out John the Baptist and his desert hangout. The main thing is: have fun and enjoy the ride! You'll learn a lot. I know I did.

There are so many uncertainties in life and our future, however, there is one thing we can be certain of and that is God’s Word. From Genesis to Revelation, it is the unfolding story of the salvation of mankind. At its center, the Word of God is the heartbeat of His Son, Jesus. We know, according to the book of Hebrews, that the Bible is God breathed and is sharper than a two-edged sword. The Word is meant to cut deep into our lives. We know that Jesus is the Word of God. John 1:1 says, “God’s word is filled with prophecy that have been fulfilled with one hundred percent accuracy. When Jesus took four of his disciples, he warned them and us of what is coming upon this world that lays on the horizon of time. John was transported from exile on Patmos to heaven to write the book of Revelations, the last book of the Bible. We need to pay close attention to what John is warning us about. I invite you to go on this journey with me as we take An Adventure Through End Time Prophecies. John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life”. John 3:17 “For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved”. Jesus is the only way to eternal life. John 14:6 “I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father but through Me”. The choice lies with each of us, what will you choose?

The publication of the King James version of the Bible, translated between 1603 and 1611, coincided with an extraordinary flowering of English literature and is universally acknowledged as the greatest influence on English-language literature in history. Now, world-class literary writers introduce the book of the King James Bible in a series of beautifully designed, small-format volumes. The introducers' passionate, provocative, and personal engagements with the spirituality and the language of the text make the Bible come alive as a stunning work of literature and remind us of its overwhelming contemporary relevance.

This extract from the Eerdmans Commentary on the Bible provides Provan’s introduction to and concise commentary on Daniel. The Eerdmans Commentary on the Bible presents, in nontechnical language, the best of modern scholarship on each book of the Bible, including the Apocrypha. Reader-friendly commentary complements succinct summaries of each section of the text and will be valuable to scholars, students, and general readers. Rather than attempt a verse-by-verse analysis, these volumes work from larger sense units, highlighting the place of each passage within the overarching biblical story. Commentators focus on the genre of each text—parable, prophetic oracle, legal code, and so on—interpreting within the historical and literary context. The volumes also address major issues within each biblical book—including the range of possible interpretations—and refer readers to the best resources for further discussions.

A collection of Bible stories from the New Testament. The reader is challenged to find a lamb, shepherd boy, and other things in the illustrations.

Why have people from different cultures and eras formulated myths and stories with similar structures? What does this similarity tell us about the mind, morality, and structure of the world itself? From the author of 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos comes a provocative hypothesis that explores the connection between what modern neuropsychology tells us about the brain and what rituals, myths, and religious stories have long narrated. A cutting-edge work that brings together neuropsychology, cognitive science, and Freudian and Jungian approaches to mythology and narrative, Maps ofMeaning presents a rich theory that makes the wisdom and meaning of myth accessible to the critical modern mind.

Encapsulating as it does research that has been undertaken on the sociological, anthropological and political aspects of the history of ancient Israel, this important book is designed to follow in the tradition of works in the series sponsored by The Society for Old Testament Study which began with the publication of The People and the Book in 1925. The World of Ancient Israel is especially concerned to explore in greater depth than comparable studies the areas and degrees of overlap between approaches to the subject of Old Testament research adopted by scholars and students of theology and the social sciences. Increasing numbers of scholars have recognised the valuable insights that can be gained from a cross-disciplinary approach, and it is becoming clear that the early biblical traditions about the formation of the Israelite state must be examined in the light of comparative anthropology if useful historical conclusions are to be drawn from them.

The final book of the Bible, Revelation prophesies the ultimate judgement of mankind in a series of allegorical visions, grisly images and numerological predictions. According to these, empires will fall, the "Beast" will be destroyed and Christ will rule a new Jerusalem. With an introduction by Will Self.
