Summary

Reading the bible has never been easier or through a more analytical eye. The Bible Book by Book helps not only to read the bible, but encourages readers to knowledgeably understand and interpret the scriptures.

The King James Holy Bible contains 39 books in the old Testament, 27 books in the New Testament, and 14 books of the Apocrypha. This book presents each and every book of the Bible, with a short essential story synopsis, followed by a commentary for study and understanding.  Finally, each book has a chapter by chapter summary in an easy to use table form.

Biblical scripture offers many pearls of wisdom, and in this new reading, some of the most beautifully written books are analyzed in depth.  Story, analysis, and commentary are covered on the events and lessons in each book to give readers the big picture. 

Illustrated with black and white images, this is an essential reference guide for all Bible users–whether students or churchgoers; enabling anyone to get the most out of the Bible
