Wonderful educational guide

The Bible, one in the Lion Books' series of Lion Access Guides, is compact, beautifully illustrated, and offers a tremendous amount of information about every aspect of Biblical history and culture. The Bible is an ideal reference guide for teens or adults looking to better understand what the Bible is all about. The guide is divided into five major sections: Overview of Bible History, The World of the Bible, The Making of the Bible, Through the Bible, and The Impact of the Bible. Each of these sections contains a series of two-page spreads devoted to a particular topic, complete with color illustrations, quotes, and Bible verses. For instance: -- In the Overview of the Bible History section, the major historical divisions covered in the Bible are succinctly and clearly explained chronologically in each two-page section. --The World of the Bible section gives readers specific information about the culture and landscape of Biblical lands and includes sections devoted to climate, education, trees and plants, family life, and a calendar of the Jewish feasts and holy days. --Through the Bible section takes the reader from the Torah, the opening five books of the Old Testament, to the letters of Paul, James, John, Peter and Jude at the conclusion of the New Testament and gives a brief summary of the contents in each book. --The Impact of the Bible section looks at the influence Christianity has had on every part of the globe, as well as on art, music, literature, and film. Anyone reading this guide will come away with a firm understanding of the Bible and its place in history. Armchair Interviews says: The Bible is pleasant to look at, clearly written, and provides a great deal of information without drowning in details.
