A Very Simple Survey of the Old Testament cover

A running survey of God's "time past" program with Israel — beginning with Genesis and continuing through the early part of the Lord's earthly ministry. This comprehensive study provides a basic understanding of what God created Israel for, His plan and purpose with them, and why rightly dividing the word of truth is essential for properly understanding Scripture today.
