Description
This is an EPUB/PDF version for Kindle, iBooks, Google Books, etc. (104 pages).
When studying the old testament, it can sometimes be difficult to understand (1) who is speaking, (2) who is being spoke to, (3) the time period the speaker is speaking, and (4) the content of the message being spoken. This book contains a summary of the verses from each chapter to help the bible student understand “the main thrust” of what we are reading about. It is in no way meant to be an extensive commentary, but rather a study aid to help reveal the simplicity of the scriptures. When reading the new testament, there are quotations found that give certain old testament scriptures a “double fulfillment” (Ex: Matthew 2:15->Hosea 11:1, etc.). This book is meant to be a straight forward and simple summarization that deals with relevance to the original audience, therefore it is not filled with explanations as to why the new testament quotes from certain passages. The dates for each book are estimates for the events contained within the book (the “activity” of the prophet). At the beginning of each book, you will notice a timeline placing each book in its correct timeframe, helping the reader understand the place that each book serves in the history of Israel.
