Description
 
John Barton, Julia Bowden

Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Co.


Ideal for beginning students and readers of all faiths or none, "The Original Story" is a comprehensive and lively guide to the Hebrew Bible. This richly illustrated volume provides a complete introduction to Old Testament history, archaeology, geography, and textual interpretation — all at an accessible level. The core of the book explores central biblical themes, including the nature of God, creation, human suffering, ethics, and the meaning of God’s covenant with Israel. The authors also consider Old Testament institutions such as law, prophecy, and worship.

Informative and easily navigable, "The Original Story" incorporates sidebars and fact boxes throughout the text as well as thought-provoking questions for discussion. All features considered, this volume is one of the best guidebooks to the Hebrew Bible now available.
