LifeGuide Bible Studies
by Dale Larsen and Sandy Larsen

paperbackPocket Dictionary for the Study of Biblical Hebrew
The IVP Pocket Reference Series
by Todd J. Murphy
Of Greek and Hebrew, Hebrew strikes the most fear in the heart of the Bible student. The alphabet does not look anything like English. The vocabulary offers almost no points of contact with English.

For those who feel that studying the English ...

But the Christian faith holds together seemingly contradictory ideas: Jesus is both human and divine; God is both three and one. There is a paradoxical power in the both-and.
