About this title

Synopsis

Written for students with no prior knowledge of the Bible and no knowledge of Hebrew, this text provides the ideal introduction both to the contents of Scripture and to its magnificent religious and literary stature.

From the Back Cover

Biblical scholarship becomes a fascinating subject for the general reader as well as for the serious student in this study of the literature of the Hebrew Scriptures. The author approaches the books of the Bible as a library of works that are narrative, prophetic, and historical as well as theological. The result is a work of impressive range and high interest for virtually every class of reader.
