More than that, Esther is the only book in ...

New Studies in Biblical Theology
by Barry G. Webb
Series edited by D. A. CarsonThese five Old Testament books, traditionally known simply as "the Scrolls," are among the most neglected parts of the Christian Bible.

Studies in Christian Doctrine and Scripture
by Brandon D. Smith
Foreword by Lewis AyresHow should we read the book of Revelation?
Interpreting Scripture faithfully is a challenge with regard to any text and for any reader of the Bible. But perhaps no text confronts and confuses readers as much as the book of Revelation. With its vivid imagery and rich prophetic language, John's Apocalypse provokes and stirs our imaginations. Some have viewed it primarily as ...
