Overview
The Old Testament Story: An Introduction with CD-ROM is a solid and exciting guide for lower division courses in religious or public universities, and for adult learners anywhere. It is not an exhaustive commentary, but samples the unforgettable and timeless traditions of the Bible. It translates biblical scholarship for anyone who wants to know what the Bible meant then, and what it means now. What kings were ruling? What wars were raging? What did prophets and midwives do in ancient Israel? Why did Hebrews tell creation stories like Adam and Eve and parables like Jonah? What dramatic roles do heroes like Samson, widows like Ruth, prophets like Elijah and teachers like the Wise Woman in Proverbs play in tradition? Where is the voice of the women in the male world of the Bible?The Old Testament Story: An Introduction with CD-ROM engages the Bible, not as a textbook in the theology of Judaism, Christianity, or Islam -- or even in the American way of life, -- but as an exquisite expression of the questions with which, eventually, every human being must struggle.Key Features:Accessible guide for the general reader CD and website with extensive additional teaching materials Photographs, line drawings, charts, and maps
