Popular Survey of the Old Testament


Dr. Geisler approaches the Old Testament from a uniquely Christ-centered point of view. He divides the Old Testament into mainly four parts, the books of the Law: The foundation for Christ, the Books of History: The Preparation for Christ, the Books of Poetry: the Aspiration for Christ and the Books of Prophecy: the Expectation of Christ. In each book, Dr. Geisler follows a format that not only shows introductory information, who wrote the book, when, why, to whom was the book written, but also the doctrinal and Christological purpose of the book. This is a great resource for anyone who wants an introduction to the Old Testament.

Product Description:
Well-illustrated with photos, charts, and maps and written in an easy, informal style, this survey will be enjoyed by all Christians who want to enrich their understanding of Old Testament people and events. Along with the cultural and historical background of each Old Testament book, the themes of the various groups of Old Testament books are discussed. Here is a solid, evangelical, and uniquely Christ-centered survey. Two introductory chapters: (1) Christ: the key to the inspiration and canonization of the Bible; (2) Christ: the key to the interpretation of the Bible lay the groundwork for the study, which is continued in four sections: The Books of the Law: The Foundation for Christ; The Books of History: The Preparation for Christ; The Books of Poetry: The Aspiration for Christ; and The Books of Prophecy: The Expectation of Christ.
