To
gain a witness of the scriptures, a thorough study is an essential
part of the process. With an understanding of the details and of
the events and of the people mentioned in scriptures comes the opportunity
to have the Spirit say, "This is truth, and it is important."
After this study and witness comes about, the scriptures have a
special meaning, and they become a source of strength and instruction
for the reader.
This book provides that opportunity to get to
know the Old Testament. The author of Every Person in the Book
of Mormon and Every Person in the Doctrine and Covenants
has now produced the third volume in this handy scriptural aid
series. Representing many years of extensive research, it is rich
in vital details about persons and groups, histories and biographies.
Included is a section with charts and a time line, which help to
visualize the histories and messages inherent in the Old Testament. |
