Truly a delightful reading experience

The authors stated there intention in the beginning of each chapter and delivered with great detail in accomplishing their objectives.

I am interested in their other projects!

Great Overview of the Old Testament

Great Overview of the Old Testament . Very detailed overview with outlines of each book and a summary of each book.

A Deeper Understanding

I've only recently embarked on my journey of theological study, but this is my favorite Old Testament commentary so far. I plan to listen again.

The best course ever

This is the most well researched and comprehensive courses on any subject, especially the Bible. Since I hold several higher degrees, I was overjoyed to find a course that presented several points of view, examined each and yet was faith filled. Brilliant and must listening!
Thank you so much

Very good at explaining what each book in the Old Testament is about.

It gives the readers critical introductory material necessary to interpret the books. I would say this is a very good resource.
