Many people dont take the Bible off the shelf and open it up and read it because they say they dont understand what it says. When you study the Bible with this book, even if you havent ever read or studied the Word of God before; it will help you get a little basic knowledge in the Word of God. I wrote this Study Guide for people who have just got saved or for young people. When anyone uses the Expositors Study Bible along with this study they will find some of the answers are in the commentary part. Today there are many study guides out there that provide some help for you, but this Study Guide breaks down every chapter in the first five books of the Bible. I will give you a sample in this Study Guide. (It is not just called the Law, but also the Tora and the Pentateuch). So I hope you find this study to help you learn the first five books of the Bible, and maybe you can use it to teach others who want to learn more about the Bible.

The Bible is full of law. Yet too often, Christians either pick and choose verses out of context to bolster existing positions, or assume that any moral judgment the Bible expresses should become the law of the land. Law and the Bible asks: What inspired light does the Bible shed on Christians’ participation in contemporary legal systems? It concludes that more often than not the Bible overturns our faulty assumptions and skewed commitments rather than bolsters them. In the process, God gives us greater insight into what all of life, including law, should be. Each chapter is cowritten by a legal professional and a theologian, and focuses on a key aspect of the biblical witness concerning civil or positive law--that is, law that human societies create to order their communities, implementing and enforcing it through civil government. A foundational text for legal professionals, law and prelaw students, and all who want to think in a faithfully Christian way about law and their relationship to it.

Prominent Reformation historian Timothy Wengert introduces the basic components of Martin Luther's theology of the Bible and examines Luther's contributions to present-day biblical interpretation. Wengert addresses key points of debate regarding Luther's approach to the Bible that have often been misunderstood, including biblical authority, the distinction between law and gospel, the theology of the cross, and biblical ethics. He argues that Luther, when rightly understood, offers much wisdom to Christians searching for fresh approaches to the interpretation of Scripture. This brief but comprehensive overview is filled with insights on Luther's theology and its significance for contemporary debates on the Bible, particularly the New Perspective on Paul.
