A beginner's guide to the books of the Bible

Diane L. Jacobson

Before starting to read one of the 66 books in the Bible, it is helpful to have an overview of the book. This beginner's guide provides accurate, concise, and easy-to-understand introductions to each of the 39 books of the Old Testament and 27 books of the New Testament. Each description discusses the book's purpose, approximate date of composition, authorship, contents, and distinctive features. Also included are introductions to larger sections of the Bible, such as the major and minor prophets, the Gospels, and Paul's letters.--From publisher description.
