31-40 - Digging For Gold
The New Testament is often the worn-out part of our Bible and the Old Testament can be the least-used part of our Bible. Sometimes, it is hard to even find such books as Nahum and Haggai. What's in them? What is there of value in this least-touched first two-thirds of the Bible? Within the pages of the books of the Old Testament are found unforgettable stories, teachings, wisdom, prophecies, and great chapters and verses. Through them, we can gain a greater understanding of ourselves, God, and His plan. This Old Testament Overview is designed to help you to become more familiar with this rich part of the Bible. It was first put together many years ago when I made my first attempt to gain a more thorough understanding of the Old Testament. I recently updated it in preparation for teaching a Bible survey class. It can be used as a devotional. For example, a summary of a book can be read each day or on a regular basis in an attempt to gain a better understanding of the purpose and flow of the books in the Old Testament. It can also be used to teach an overview of the Bible as I did. I personally benefitted from books such as Explore the Book by J. Sidlow Baxter, as well as a number of other books. Enjoy your digging in the Old Testament.
