The interbiblical period has been the focus of intensive scholarly study for many years, yet the fruits of this work often remain inaccessible to the theological student and minister. Robert L. Cate rectifies this situation, gathering and communicating the results of research in clear, readable prose. Cate argues persuasively that an understanding of the interbiblical period is crucial to those who are concerned with the development of Judaism, the life and ministry of Jesus, the historical setting for the New Testament's development, and the emergence of the church. He then introduces the reader to the people, geography, politics, religions, philosophies, and lifestyles that combine to make up the history of the Bible lands in the interbiblical period.

The authors of this book have combined years of expertise and devotion to Scripture to provide a truly unique volume that sets forth concise, logical, practical guidelines for discovering the truth in God's Word. Ten years after its initial publication, the authors now have thoroughly updated it in light of the latest scholarship. "This is a remarkably comprehensive study of the whole area of biblical interpretation. Thoroughly evangelical, it also interacts with nonevangelical interpretational stances. No other volume available on biblical interpretation does so much so well."- Douglas Stuart, Professor of Old Testament, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary

As its title suggests, this volume is written for readers of the Bible. It is intended to provide historical backgrounds concerning the peoples and lands of the Bible and is meant to supplement a study of the biblical narrative itself. Thus it is not a traditional history of the ancient Near East, because it does not address all periods and all societies but has its focus on those that enlighten the biblical text. It is also written with those Bible readers in mind who travel or study in Bible lands, with emphasis on places and artifacts that visitors frequently see today.

The Book of Daniel is among the most talked about books in the Old Testament—and by far the most difficult to understand. One reason is because a large portion of the book is written using prophetic symbols and language. To understand the Book of Daniel, you must understand these symbols and the language of prophecy—and also know about world history. Perhaps most importantly, however, you must have special guidance from the Holy Spirit. Clarence Duff, Th.D., Ph.D., a Bible teacher, author, pastor, and professor, makes the Book of Daniel accessible to a general audience, including students pursuing theological education, ordinary Christians, and even those uncertain about their faith. Even if you’re unfamiliar with biblical prophecy, this book will help you quickly come to appreciate its importance and benefits to the Christian life. In straightforward language, the author reveals the essential elements of the Book of Daniel. Get a firm grasp of what the Book of Daniel says, why it’s still relevant, and how it can help you understand unfolding events as you seek to live a better life in anticipation of the coming of Christ’s kingdom.

A messiah is an individual appointed by God to a specific task of importance, and elevated to a level of far greater authority than a prophet by leading (or claiming to lead) a group or movement. The movement comes to be uniquely centered on his or her teachings, and the messiah claims spiritual and temporal authority over its followers. This book is an examination of both males and females in the Judeo-Christian heritage (excluding Jesus of Nazareth) who either claimed to be the messiah, were viewed by contemporaries as such, or are considered by a significant number of scholars to have been motivated by messianic goals. The work is arranged chronologically, with details about messiahs from before Christ through the dawn of the technological age at the end of the nineteenth century. It covers nearly 100 individual messiahs, including such Old Testament figures as King Hezekiah and Herod the Great, as well as later messiahs both obscure and historically renowned (even Queen Elizabeth I and King Charles I were touted as messiahs by certain devoted followers). Meticulously researched, the book includes an extensive bibliography.

What is �The Intertestamental Period: A Climate of Change� all about? Also known as the Silent Years of the Bible, the four-hundred-year period between the Old and New Testament was all but silent. The actions of Alexander the Great, Antiochus Epiphanes, Justin Maccabees, Herod the Great, Cleopatra, Marc Antony Julius Caesar, and many others set the stage for the New Testament events to take place and to be written down for future study and life application. Many shadows of the things to come prophetically spoken about in the Old Testament were found fulfilled at the onset of the New Testament. This book overflows with history, religion, politics, literature, but it also has intrigue, murder, rebellion, with a little bit of insanity mixed in. The events that took place during this era were not considered �in simpler times� or boring by any means. You will discover that The Intertestamental Period was An Optimum Environment for God�s Ultimate Plan.
