What do Adam and Jesus have in common? What do Eve and Mary have in common? More than you think! With full color illustrations, Maura Roan McKeegan has brought to life biblical typology for children. Taking familiar biblical stories from the Old and New Testaments and placing them side by side, children can see biblical typology jump off the page. Biblical typology is when a person or an event in the Old Testament foreshadows a person or an event in the New Testament. The Bible is full of these fascinating “types.” Children can now discover similarities of types without any difficulty, and easily understand at an early age what St. Augustine meant when he said that the New Testament lies hidden in the Old and the Old Testament is revealed in the New. Recommended for ages 3 and up.

The inspiration for the writing of the book: the Flaming Sword came from deep meditation upon the Word of God. The Lord Spoke to me and Told me to go round buying Bibles - especially old ones and different types and editions. Then I came across this huge Bible referred to in the first chapter of the book: A Case For the Word of God: Gateway to True Freedom. What struck me was the fact that men had obeyed God's Word to them and His Leading of them to perform certain tasks like writing the Holy Scriptures and translating the same Holy Scriptures. Just like Noah received Instructions to build the Ark etc. Another thing that struck me was that many people encounter God in life and die without acknowledging or witnessing to that fact. A particular man that I read about in one of the testimonies was not prepared to die without witnessing to the facts of what God had done in his life. That was it. I was caught. God had gotten a good grip on me. I realised that my line of thinking was not my own and that the Lord was actually Speaking to me again. I had been walking very closely with the Lord for several years before this particular encounter. He had Spoken to me that He would use me to speak to the world. I had so many visions and encounters with God's Word previously and in fact to date. I had to pour out my heart. I had to speak to the world of some things the Lord had been Speaking to me about. That was how I started handwriting the book. I wrote the book on my knees mostly in a praying position over a total of about two weeks almost non-stop. I couldn't stop till it was finished. I wrote this book in 2004 after a life-threatening illness. I realise that God spared my life for a reason and I couldn't afford to die with the Word Living in me. I had to share it with the world and quickly. It has interestingly taken about six years for the book to be published. God's Timing is the best. I am fully satisfied that eventually the book got published. I give all the praise and glory to God Almighty in Jesus' Christ. The Flaming Sword is the only sword that can actually separate bone from marrow. It is sharper than any normal double edged sword. It is the Word of God. When the Lord Speaks, He means business. Dishonour His Word at your own peril. But obey the Word of God and be Blessed. For with God, there are Blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience. The Lord has Spoken His Word to me and through me and I have delivered to the best of my ability. The rest is for you my reader. May God Enable you and Bless you to get the best from the book. It is for you. I pray in Jesus' Name. Amen. It is my hope that you, my reader, would read the book in an attitude of reverence and prayer and meditate upon the words written. I believe that the book will benefit you. of course, like any endeavour in life, the tendency is to get from it as much as you put into it. So therefore, to get the best of the book you must apply yourself to it in terms of commitment. Even if you have no faith at all, just decide that you are going to learn something new and that you will not read the book in vain and you will be Blessed in Jesus' Name.

Robertson's study of the Books of Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah is a contribution to The New International Commentalry on the Old Testament, a commentary which strives to achieve a balance between technical information and homiletic-devotional interpretation. The commentary proper is based on the author's own translation of the Hebrew text.

Imagine that you could really understand the Bible...that you could read, analyze, and discuss the book of Genesis not as a compositional mystery, a cultural relic, or a linguistic puzzle palace, or even as religious doctrine, but as a philosophical classic, precisely in the same way that a truth-seeking reader would study Plato or Nietzsche. Imagine that you could be led in your study by one of America's preeminent intellectuals and that he would help you to an understanding of the book that is deeper than you'd ever dreamed possible, that he would reveal line by line, verse by verse the incredible riches of this illuminating text -- one of the very few that actually deserve to be called seminal. Imagine that you could get, from Genesis, the beginning of wisdom. The Beginning of Wisdom is a hugely learned book that, like Genesis itself, falls naturally into two sections. The first shows how the universal history described in the first eleven chapters of Genesis, from creation to the tower of Babel, conveys, in the words of Leon Kass, "a coherent anthropology" -- a general teaching about human nature -- that "rivals anything produced by the great philosophers." Serving also as a mirror for the reader's self-discovery, these stories offer profound insights into the problematic character of human reason, speech, freedom, sexual desire, the love of the beautiful, pride, shame, anger, guilt, and death. Something as seemingly innocuous as the monotonous recounting of the ten generations from Adam to Noah yields a powerful lesson in the way in which humanity encounters its own mortality. In the story of the tower of Babel are deep understandings of the ambiguous power of speech, reason, and the arts; the hazards of unity and aloneness; the meaning of the city and its quest for self-sufficiency; and man's desire for fame, immortality, and apotheosis -- and the disasters these necessarily cause. Against this background of human failure, Part Two of The Beginning of Wisdom explores the struggles to launch a new human way, informed by the special Abrahamic covenant with the divine, that might address the problems and avoid the disasters of humankind's natural propensities. Close, eloquent, and brilliant readings of the lives and educations of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Jacob's sons reveal eternal wisdom about marriage, parenting, brotherhood, education, justice, political and moral leadership, and of course the ultimate question: How to live a good life? Connecting the two "parts" is the book's overarching philosophical and pedagogical structure: how understanding the dangers and accepting the limits of human powers can open the door to a superior way of life, not only for a solitary man of virtue but for an entire community -- a life devoted to righteousness and holiness. This extraordinary book finally shows Genesis as a coherent whole, beginning with the creation of the natural world and ending with the creation of a nation that hearkens to the awe-inspiring summons to godliness. A unique and ambitious commentary, a remarkably readable literary exegesis and philosophical companion, The Beginning of Wisdom is one of the most important books in decades on perhaps the most important -- and surely the most frequently read -- book of all time.

The final book of the Bible, Revelation prophesies the ultimate judgement of mankind in a series of allegorical visions, grisly images and numerological predictions. According to these, empires will fall, the "Beast" will be destroyed and Christ will rule a new Jerusalem. With an introduction by Will Self.
