Many people would like to read the Bible but do not know where to begin since it is not the type of book you can just pick up and read cover-to-cover. To understand the various books of the Bible, we need to know the history of Jesus" people and their relationship with God. Father John Daley has prepared this brilliant little guide to help familiarize parishioners with the Bible. In this edition, short summaries of Old Testament literature are interspersed with detailed summaries of the Gospels and other New Testament books. A historical chronology has also been included and the dates that each book was written. Excellent for high school through adults.
