Synopsis:

Published in January 1999, The Complete Idiot's Guide® to The Bible was a sensation. Providing a readable overview to the entire Bible, it was praised by readers for its wit, ease of use as a reference tool, and accessible presentation of the amazing stories of the Bible. Including both the old and new testaments, this revised edition continues to walk both experienced Bible readers and those seeking it out for the first time through a chronological, story-by-story and person-by-person experience. Complete with maps of journeys and explanations of the acts and epistles, this book is the best beginner's guide on the market today. It includes (1) the journeys of Abraham, Issac, Jacob, Joseph and Moses and the law from Joshua, Judges, Ruth, Samuel, and Kings including David and Goliath, Gideon and Samson, and King Solomon (2) the captives, the women, the poets, the prophets, and more through the Old Testament (3) the story of Jesus as told in the four Gospels (4) the acts of the Apostles as they spread the word of the new church; the letters from Paul, Peter, James, John, and Jude on a variety of topics; and John's apocalyptic Revelation (5) the Apocrypha including Maccabees 1 and 2 along with other missing books included for other practices and (6) an all new reference glossary featuring names and places with descriptions and cross-references to their discussion in the Bible
