Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Zondervan Handbook to the Bible, a thoroughly revised version of the classic Eerdmans Handbook to the Bible, is an authoritative, clearly written, chapter-by-chapter guide to every book in the Bible. Lavishly illustrated with colorful maps, charts, photographs, and illustrations, this volume is an excellent resource for students of Scripture who crave a concrete sense of what the Garden of Gethsemane looks like, for example, or a handy reference to the duties of priesthood in the First Temple. In-depth articles by leading biblical scholars will lead curious readers to the best resources for further study, and a "Rapid Fact-Finder" in the back of the book is helpful for quick reference. Previous editions of the Handbook have been praised by leading conservative Christian writers, including Charles W. Colson and F.F. Bruce, and this new edition will surely nourish the next generation of Christians who follow in their footsteps.
