Are you looking for a Textbook that gives a great survey of
the bible that Jesus would have used? This is it! What the Old Testament
Authors really cared about is a great book that gives information that many are
seeking and too afraid to ask about. Easily understood this book is written in
the format of the Law, Prophets and Writings just as the Jewish Tankah would
be.
Each Chapter heralds information that is simplistic yet
still deep enough for a graduate student to use in their studies. When you
begin each chapter you are given a “Who When Where Why” overview and a short
synopsis of the book. You are also introduced to the K-I-N-G-D-O-M story
through images program. This unique tool helps you know what the book is
talking about as well as what each image means. By mixing illustrations with
modern Israel photos and drawings, the story of the OT comes to life and helps
the modern reader understand why Jews do what they do today; based on what
their faith taught them years ago.
As a youth minister I looked for books that would help me
make the Old Testament relevant to my students. As a Bible teacher, I continue
that search and have found a timeless resource in this book. It is my hope that
everyone who reads this book will also find a timeless resource and a renewed
joy in reading the Old Testament with understanding of what the authors really
cared about.
