The Bible Companion by Ronald D Witherup Pss

The Bible Companion by Ronald D Witherup Pss

An entry-level overview of the Bible, which presupposes no specialized knowledge of the Bible or religion, this accessible guide emphasizes truly experiencing the Bible rather than just studying it. Written in a warm and inviting tone by a prominent biblical scholar, the handbook answers many questions, such as What is the Bible, and how did it come to be? How do you recognize a true prophet? and Which Bible should I choose? Arranged according to the books of the Bible, this comprehensive introduction includes chapters on the Gospels, the Acts of the Apostles, and the Letters as well as appendices, a glossary, and resources for further study.

"With a masterful knowledge of the Bible, FrWitherup skillfully outlines and summarizes the content of every Biblical book. For those looking for a first introduction to the Bible, and for those seeking a concise summary of its contents, this is the place to begin." --Frank J. Matera, The Andrews-Kelly-Ryan Professor of Biblical Studies, The Catholic University of America
"Ronald Witherup's skills as both scholar and teacher are brought together in this fine work. A very helpful handbook for group or individual Bible study." --Dianne Bergant, professor, Old Testament studies, Chicago Theological Union
"A user-friendly guide to the Bible . . . great for any Bible-study group or for personal use." -- Spirit & Life
