Bible Companion

by Parragon Books

The Bible is a towering literary and cultural achievement, one of the cornerstones upon which our civilization rests. Yet the road to scriptural literacy is often fraught with obstacles. Which are the key books? How does the Old Testament differ from the New Testament? Who are the significant figures? The Bible Companion answers these questions in a series of engaging, vividly written, thematically related chapters, such as the Pentateuch, the Historical Books, and the Gospels, covering every book in the bible from Genesis to Revelation. Accompanying the text are dozens of carefully chosen, beautifully reproduced illustrations by some of the world's greatest artists, a gallery of ageless treasures to grace any coffee table or bookshelf.
