Description
This guide is aimed at anyone who's ever wanted to get to grips with the content, meaning and relevance of the books of the Bible. For each book there is a summary of what, in essence, the book is all about and how it fits into the overall themes. The main events and characters are set out, along with the well-known stories. Then the book is unpacked with a commentary (narrative books); and (for non-narrative books) the main significance and cultural backdrop are explored. Colour photographs and charts help get across the key points without over-complicating the issues.
