The Illustrated Concise Bible Handbook - Not Bad At All !

This is a big book. A Very big book. It contains overviews of the old and new testaments, background insights, archaelogical findings, maps, charts, illustrations and even photos. The text is separated into book, then chapters, then blocks of verses. There's even questions at the end of most paragraphs to make you think about what you've just read and how you can apply it to your life. For each Book, you get a summary, and outline of the main themes, then plain and understandable insights into each chapter with titled paragraphs. In the appendicies there's the meaning of names, records of miracles and parables, and even a list of trees and flowers of the bible - but what you'd need that for I've no idea. Written in plain language, this book is easy to understand and helpful in applying the truths of scripture to daily life. An asset to any biblical bookshelf.
