For many people, skeptics and believers alike, the Old Testament is rife with controversial passages and events that make both belief and sharing our beliefs with others difficult. Often our solutions have tended toward the extremes—ignore problem passages and pretend they don't matter or obsess over them and treat them as though they are the only thing that matters. Now with clarity of purpose and fidelity to the message and spirit of Scripture as a whole, Tremper Longman confronts pressing questions of concern to modern audiences.

The Bible is constantly condemned as outdated, legalistic, and irrelevant, yet it's widely owned and cherished worldwide. Despite ownership it often lies unread and scarcely believed, even by Christians. The reason - it's not accepted as the infallible word of God, but worse many reject it as fictitious and immaterial. This book directly addresses the truth and relevance of the Bible.

The Bible is the most influential book in Western history. As the foundational text of Judaism and Christianity, the Bible has been interpreted and reinterpreted over millennia, utilized to promote a seemingly endless run of theological and political positions. Adherents and detractors alike point to different passages throughout to justify wildly disparate behaviors and beliefs. Translated and retranslated, these texts lead both to unity and intense conflict.

This Very Short Introduction looks at the importance accorded to the bible by different communities and cultures and attempts to explain why it has generated such a rich variety of uses and interpretations. It explores how the Bible was written, the development of the canon, the role of biblical criticism, the appropriation of the bible in high and popular culture, and its use for political ends.

Many of us know and love the stories and characters of the Old Testament, such as Joseph, Moses, and Jonah. But how do we view its importance in relation to New Testament teaching and our 21st-century experiences?

Keeping the end in mind shapes how we live our lives in the here and now. Living life backward means taking the one thing in our future that is certain—death—and letting that inform our journey before we get there. Looking to the book of Ecclesiastes for wisdom, Living Life Backward was written to shake up our expectations and priorities for what it means to live "the good life."

Qohelet, o Ecclesiaste, è attribuito a re Salomone ed è composto di 12 capitoli contenenti varie meditazioni sapienziali sulla vita, molte delle quali apparentemente caratterizzate da un tenore pessimistico o di rassegnazione. Ma il significato profondo risiede nel richiamo alla fede in Dio, unico aspetto dell'esistenza che l'uomo può controllare.

The end times have seen a great amount of interest within the last two decades. The Iraq and Afghanistan wars, the Arab Spring, ISIS, and the Iranian stand-off have focused us on the future of the Middle East - the center of the Bible's prophecies about the last days. Yet there hasn't been a comprehensive overview of biblical prophecy and eschatology for more than five decades. Mark Hitchcock's book is that comprehensive resource for the 21st-century listener. The End will provide a solid biblical foundation for Christians to explore the essential truths.

God has provided salvation, but when does it begin? What is required of us? Can we lose it? These and other disputed questions have divided Christians for centuries. Matthew W. Bates has already shown that the gospel is about King Jesus and that faith includes allegiance. In Beyond the Salvation Wars, he unpacks additional truths from the Bible and the early church to describe how salvation happens.

To understand the history of Jesus of Nazareth, one must first navigate the thick forests of tradition, theology, and art that have grown around his name for two millennia. For some, he is the iconic figure of the stained-glass window, a serene and distant deity. For others, he is a radical social reformer, a peasant philosopher, or a failed revolutionary. However, to find the man himself, we must travel back to the dusty, high-stakes world of the first-century Near East.

To understand the spiritual landscape of the ancient world and the foundations of apocalyptic thought, one must look to the Book of Enoch; a manuscript that stands as a colossal bridge between the Genesis patriarchs and the New Testament apostles. Though it resides outside the modern Western Biblical canon, its influence is woven into the very fabric of Judeo-Christian theology.

The Plot: The Tree is the third book in The Plot series. Is the "law" based on the knowledge of good and evil? What is the meaning of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil? What was the curse that began at the tree? What is the meaning of "Cursed is he who hangs on a tree" (Gal. 3: 13; Deut. 21: 23)? Why did Christ hang on a tree? What is the relationship between the Tree and the cross? Why did God nail the law to the cross (Col. 2: 14)? What was the fate of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil? And what legacy has that tree left?

The Plot: Last Days is the fourth in The Plot series. In order to understand the Bible's ending, you must know its overall plot. The Plot: Last Days confronts some of the most confusing and controversial questions in Bible prophecy. Why did the early believers sell everything they owned? Did the apostles expect Jesus to return within their lifetime? What do Daniel's 70 Weeks, the Seven Feasts of Israel, and Pentecost have to do with the end times? Is the Church destined to endure the Great Tribulation-or will it escape through a Rapture?
