A need was felt in many high school Bible classes for a method of giving notes and assignment questions quickly, thereby leaving more of the valuable classroom time for explanations, discussions, and student participation. This workbook was first compiled to meet that need. This workbook has also been used by various age groups in churches and colleges and by individuals desiring a better understanding of God’s word. This is in no sense a textbook. It is hoped that no one will make the completion of the workbook a goal in itself but that the questions and notes may stimulate and guide each student in searching and knowing the BIBLE. The workbook is planned for a high school course which meets every day for a semester. The workbook has been effectively used in weekly Adult Bible classes by dividing it into four units of twelve lessons each. Because of this limited time in which to cover the Old Testament the problem of what to assign for reading and what to omit looms large. By the name of each book or by the questions on the book there are listed suggestive chapters for reading. The plan of the course is to study Israel’s history chronologically. David’s and Solomon’s writings are fitted in with their lives and the prophets mentioned as they appear in the history of the nation. The course is so arranged as to be flexible according to the individual teacher’s emphasis. Some may wish to end their course without completing the Old Testament history but most teachers feel that a brief glance at the whole is profitable in giving the students a rounded view of God’s dealing with His chosen people. This book is not primarily for teachers but for students. It is factual rather than inspirational. The spiritual presentation of the course has been left for each individual teacher to present according to the daily needs of the class. It is hoped that the facts and questions may furnish a basis for making many vital applications of the Old Testament to present-day living. In this second revision the sections on the kingdom period and the poetic books have been enlarged. The place of Christ in the Old Testament, especially in prophecy, has been set forth more clearly. There are additional notes in the material bringing ones attention to the progressive unfolding of God’s plan of redemption. The following words from 1 Timothy 4:12-16 were sent to me at the beginning of my work of Bible teaching. May the stimulation this passage must have been years ago to Timothy, and more recently to myself, be yours also. “Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of hands of the presbytery. Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.” CATHERINE B. WALKER

This workbook is designed to lead you on a journey through God’s Word as events occurred in time. Your trip begins at God’s creation of the world and ends with His revelation to John.

While most Christians desire to know and understand God's Word, many have a limited understanding of the Bible. They may know bits and pieces--random Bible stories and verses--but not how the pieces fit together. This study fits these "bits and pieces" of Bible knowledge together in to the big picture, showing how each one relates to a common theme that runs throughout the Word. This journey "through the Bible" reveals the unfolding of God's plan in the insights and events found in each book of the Bible and provides a panoramic view for excellent understanding of the Bible as a whole. There is no substitute for studying the Bible, and Through the Bible is an invaluable tool for gaining a better understanding of God's Word. Author Patricia J. David encourages the reader to make a priority of knowing and understanding the Bible, and then helps the reader to accomplish this goal.
