A Class-Book of Old Testament History

An instructional survey of Old Testament history presents a chronological narrative from the creation and early human settlements through the patriarchs, the Exodus and Sinai legislation, the conquest and settlement of Canaan, the period of the judges, the united and divided monarchies, prophetic activity, the Babylonian exile, and the return under Ezra and Nehemiah. Each section combines clear narrative with explanatory notes, references for further study, maps, chronological tables, and an index of persons and places to aid classroom use and advanced students. The work emphasizes events, institutions, laws, and religious practices while supplying illustrative maps and bibliographic guidance.
