DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This is a guide to the Hebrew Bible unlike any other. Leading us chapter by chapter through its most important stories--from the Creation and the Tree of Knowledge through the Exodus from Egypt and the journey to the Promised Land--James Kugel shows how a group of anonymous, ancient interpreters radically transformed the Bible and made it into the book that has come down to us today. Was the snake in the Garden of Eden the devil, or the Garden itself "paradise"? Did Abraham discover monotheism, and was his son Isaac a willing martyr? Not until the ancient interpreters set to work. Poring over every little detail in the Bible's stories, prophecies, and laws, they let their own theological and imaginative inclinations radically transform the Bible's very nature. Their sometimes surprising interpretations soon became the generally accepted meaning. These interpretations, and not the mere words of the text, became the Bible in the time of Jesus and Paul or the rabbis of the Talmud. Drawing on such sources as the Dead Sea Scrolls, ancient Jewish apocrypha, Hellenistic writings, long-lost retellings of Bible stories, and prayers and sermons of the early church and synagogue, Kugel reconstructs the theory and methods of interpretation at the time when the Bible was becoming the bedrock of Judaism and Christianity. Here, for the first time, we can witness all the major transformations of the text and recreate the development of the Bible "As It Was" at the start of the Common era--the Bible as we know it.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The escape from Egypt is the pivotal event in the Old Testament. Through it God gave his people their freedom. For forty tumultuous years God and Moses and a chronically rebellious people suffered and fought and established the foundations of a legal system and a system of ethics that changed the world. The Old Testament reminds us that we must never forget the Exodus, or we will forget who we are. And as we learn about the Exodus, we learn who we are.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →* Throughout human history, mankind’s greatest struggle has been our willingness to admit our need for God. (Psalm 14:1) *Our failure to recognize our need for God has led to a deep spiritual sickness. (Psalm 14:2-3) * Until we accept that we have this disease, we won’t recognize our need to find “The Cure.” (Matthew 5:3) In the section of Scripture known as “The Beatitudes”, Jesus lays out principles that work much like a doctor diagnosing cancer. By demonstrating the vast difference between the heart of God and the heart of man, He reveals both the depth of our spiritual sickness, as well as the folly of trying to live without God. Like a person who is sick with cancer, it is not until you receive your diagnosis, and accept the fact you have a terminal disease, that you become willing to take the steps necessary to find “The Cure” for your condition. This book explores an important spiritual truth: Once we accept the reality of God’s diagnosis, the only hope of getting better is “The Cure” that Jesus offers!

And there are those who have responded to the general call to His Household, who have special callings of God on their lives. And the Word says, "As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold Grace of God. If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to Whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen" (1 Pet. 4:10-11).

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Moses is a great Old Testament man of God from whom we can learn so many great things - both positive and negative things. Moses was born in a great trying period for the children of Israel; but God, by His Mighty Hand, shielded and protected him. When he came to age, he refused to be taken as the son of Pharaoh's daughter, but chose to suffer affliction with the people of God. After God met him at the burning bush, he returned to Pharaoh in great authority, power, and boldness; and thus delivered the Israelites. He obeyed God faithfully and had close relationship with God. Even though he made a mistake, God, in His Great Love and Mercy, forgave him (for he repented) and took him to Heaven.
