Great small book. Helps with bible stuff. Great price for it.

I was delighted to discover that this book refers to the KJV when verses are shown. That fact should have been included in the description. To KJV-only users, it matters!

This is a small book and you can read it in a couple of hours, so you can't expect ti to equal the Bible - however, the author has accomplished what he set out to accomplish and in that sense it is very well done. For each of the 66 books of the Bible, the author has quoted the author, the date when it was approximately written, summary of that book in 10 words or less. He then shared details in a paragraph or two, followed by quotable quotes, what's unique and unusual, and ultimately the moral lesson, under the heading "So what?"" that book attempts to convey. At the beginning of the book, the author writes, the ultimate message of the whole Bible is that God loves you. "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God ... God is love. (1 John 4:7-8) Quotable Quotes: "God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you." (Exodus, 3:14) "Ye shall be holy, for I (god) am holy. " (Leviticus 11:44) "The Lord is long-suffering, and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression." (Numbers 14:18) "Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is One Lord.' (Deuteronomy 6:4) "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might." (Deuteronomy 6:5) "Man shall not live by bread alone,but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." (Deuteronomy 8:3) "Be strong and of a good courage, be not afraid, neither be though dismayed, for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest." (Joshua 1:9) "Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. (Psalms 51:10) "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding."

Troubles that people experience as punishment are not intended to hurt people but to bring them back to God, to urge them to return to Love. (2 Chronicles) Trouble isn't necessary a sign of sin in a person's life. It may be something God allows to draw us closer to Him. (Job) When we find ourselves in bad situations, it may be so we can accomplish something good - like Esther did. (Ester) "God loves everyone - even the enemies of his chosen people" (Jonah)

Great read.

But it!!!! I love it

A short book giving basic information on each book of the Bible, noting the assumed author, context, background and a few well known verses.

Sono Molto soddisfatto di questo acquisto, trovo molto utile per capire meglio diversi versi nella Bibbia

Sometimes the smaller something is, as long as it is comprehensive and properly made, the better it is. This is the case with this booklet. It is an excellent companion for the Bible, and it summarizes very well the key points, facts and figures from each Bible book.

This is never going to take the place of both reading and studying the Bible. It isn’t supposed to and definitely wasn’t written for that reason. I have used this book for 2 reasons:- 1. As a refresher for the books that I haven’t read in awhile. 2. As a primer for books that I have absolutely No recollection of ever having read! (Micah, Titus, Joel, Song of Songs, anyone)!! 😳 As such, this book is invaluable. Another Blessing - this is the BEST ‘cheat sheet’ that I’ve come across! These gentlemen have done all of the hard work for me. They’ve given me an approachable way to introduce certain chapters into my conversations, or help me when I’m floundering for the correct turn of phrase. It’s a very handy book which I will refer to often. I recommend it.

Well explained. I give it as a gift to a teen, hoping she will gain valuable insights about the Good Book. Since then, she was very courteous, helpful and join church activities...I dont know, but she turn to be a better teen now!

Good for beginners. Explains each book of the bible. It is good
