All too often, throughout history, women have been either unrecognized or underestimated. This book focuses on “unrecognized” women in the bible. I struggled with a sound title for this, my third edition of “The Eyewitnesses.” Finally, the word “uncelebrated” emerged as a more powerful word. Twenty women are featured in this work; their stories stretch from Genesis to Timothy. None of the women in this book are truly CELBRATED, yet they are all VERY IMPORTANT to God’s message. In my earlier “Eyewitness” books, I used fictitious people who may have witnessed God’s work. ...

Impossible. That is the word that continues to describe Abraham. Scholars have long thought his life was only myth, a legend to give Israel a past. Even Christians have reduced the story to fable, trying to reconcile his life story with scientific claims propped up by anthropology and evolution. The critics are firm: there is no archaeological or historical evidence to support the biblical account of Abraham. But their foundation has cracks, and new discoveries are widening them. In this book you'll learn about the discoveries that are changing scholars' minds and confirming the truth ...

The geopolitical landscape of first-century Judea was a complex tapestry of religious tradition and imperial pragmatism. At the center of this world stood the office of the High Priest, a position that carried both divine weight and political volatility. To understand Caiaphas, one must first understand the precarious nature of the Herodian and Roman oversight that defined his era. Since the Roman annexation of Judea in 6 A.D., the appointment of the High Priest had shifted from a lifelong hereditary right to a political appointment managed by the Roman governor.
