"Ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it." (Jeremiah 6:16) In Walking the Ancient Path, distinguished Old Testament scholar Walter C.

Following an introduction that surveys the historical and literary background of Jeremiah along with its theological emphases, Kaiser examines each verse of the text, explaining its meaning and significance.

Bibliographies in each section provide resources for further study, and most textual and linguistic matters are discussed in footnotes. Pastors, scholars, and serious students of the Bible will find this volume indispensable for understanding Jeremiah's message and how to apply it today.

It's estimated that there's somewhere in the neighborhood of 2 billion Christians in the world. Yet Jesus tells us (chapter 13 of the book): "The way is narrow that leads to life, and only a few ever find it." {Matthew 7:14} Surely you must see that 2 billion is a far cry from "only a few." And surely we would all be wise to "examine ourselves" (2 Cor. 13:5) to see if we truly believe Jesus when He tells us, "the way is narrow that leads to life." He also tells us, "they that worship him must worship him in truth." John 4:24 (chapter 4 of the book). He at the same time warns us, through one of His prophets, "My people... refuse to stand up for truth." {Jeremiah 9:3 NLT} And I must tell you, that's still applies today: "A time is coming (that time is no longer coming, it's here) when people will no longer listen to right teaching... They will reject the truth." {2 Timothy 4:3, 4 NLT, NIV} And we must make absolutely certain we're not one of those "people that reject the truth." The book contains 20 chapters, each one based on a verse by Jesus. It's packed full of many wonderful Bible passages and it presents profoundly important truths in a clear, convincing, and simple manner.

In past generations, the role of wife and mother was viewed as a sacred calling. The committed homemaker was seen as strong, capable, intelligent, and irreplaceable. She was regarded not only as a crucial part of the home, but as a foundational bulwark of society. She was considered worthy of great honor, appreciation, and respect. Though in recent years feminists have sought to demean this glorious calling, the Bible's hopeful vision of noble womanhood is one worth reclaiming. "Queen of the Home" seeks to cast that vision afresh through godly encouragements from writers past and present. This inspiring collection of essays, poetry, and poignant vignettes paints a beautiful picture of what it means for a wife to be a crown to her husband, the monarch of the cradle, and queen of the home, and calls upon daughters to embrace their rewarding role and sacred calling as regal women of God.
