New Testament Times, The

Subtitle: Understanding the World of the First Century

About the Title: This popular guide to the first century world is now in full color! The correct and full interpretation of Scripture often depends on having an understanding of the culture in which the writers of the Bible lived. These men naturally spoke in the imagery and circumstances of their political and historical situations, and translating their words into our language and modern context can prove difficult.

 

Merrill Tenny's New Testament Times thoroughly explores and explains the political, social and cultural forces of the first century, allowing you a deeper understanding of the world in which the Christian church was born. You will find full-color photographs, maps, and charts throughout the book to help you visualize that world.

 

An excellent tool for pastors, Bible study groups and individuals, New Testament Times offers the answers to many questions we pose as we study God's Word.
