Reading the Old Testament for the first time can feel like trying to talk with an immigrant from a foreign country who doesn't speak our common language: confusing, frustrating, and perhaps even offensive. The reason we have this experience as English-speakers is because our Western culture is totally foreign to the ancient setting where the Bible originated. To understand this text, we must learn to see the world of the Bible's authors from their unique perspective.In this second volume of The Bold Testament 3-part series, you will get to know the foreign land, language, literature, and legacy of the Hebrew Bible. The author is a Christian with a BA degree in Biblical Studies and 16 years of experience as both a writer and a Bible teacher. Keeping an open mind, he invites people of all backgrounds and faiths on a journey through this world-transforming text.

Experience an adventurous journey through the Bible's story framed around the lives of 10 main characters: Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, David, Elijah, Jeremiah, and Ezra. Diving deep into the individual lives of these 10 characters, this third and final volume in The Bold Testament series provides a comprehensive account of the Old Testament's epic saga. Through it all, you will see Jesus walking with humanity throughout the entire Old Testament narrative.Did you know there are many "messiahs" in the Hebrew Bible that each point to the ultimate Messiah promised in the New Covenant? You will also discover how the Bible's entire story-in both Old & New Testaments-revolves around God's promises revealed in 7 Covenants. These and many other insights will expand your understanding of Old Testament prophecy to help you embrace the exciting, bold testimony of Jesus found in the largest portion of the Christian Bible.
