PaperbackThe Message of Hebrews
The Bible Speaks Today Series
by Raymond Brown

The letter to the Hebrews brought a profound encouragement and appeal: they must keep their eyes on Christ and remain anchored in the ...

PaperbackThe Message of Revelation
The Bible Speaks Today Series

PaperbackThe Message of Ezekiel
The Bible Speaks Today Series

Ezekiel comes to us as a stranger from a distant time and land. Who is this man? He is a priest who, on his thirtieth birthday, has a dazzling vision of God on a wheeled throne; an odd prophet who engages in outlandish street theater and speaks for God on international affairs; and a seer who paints murals of apocalyptic doom and then of a restored temple bursting with emblems of ...
PaperbackThe Message of Hosea
The Bible Speaks Today Series
by Derek Kidner
Why would God ask one of his prophets to marry a prostitute? Because he wanted to teach Hosea, the nation of Israel, and all of us today a lesson we will not forget, a lesson that is painful yet joyous.
