This is about the King period of Israel and the days of the prophets. Besides the various English versions, many might have heard about but know little about the various versions in their original languages. The Masoretic Text (Hebrew version) is known as the mainstay of the Hebrew scholars. There is the Septuagint or the Greek version of the Bible, the Latin Vulgate and finally, the Samaritan Text. The serious Bible student may have heard about these but has little capability to explore these different versions. Each of these versions has expert translations into English, so it is no longer necessary to spend years learning the different "source" languages of the Bible. This work supplies the King James verse along with the same verse from different translators.

This work is intended to convert the casual reader of the Bible into a more serious reader intent on understanding the overall Plan of God, His works, and His purpose for mankind. It includes commentary on different subjects covered but not explained in the Bible, such as Bride Price. Few understand why Rachel did not have Joseph until the end of the 14 years of labor of Jacob. This explains the reason God held off giving Rachel a child until the end of the 14 years.

There are archaeological sources and documents that give evidence about the different events of the Bible. The autobiography of Nebuchadnezzar goes a long way into telling details of his rule that are left out of conventional history. The many Eponym Lists of the Assyrians. The Sumerian King List shows the different ruling dynasties of the Babylonians and there are various sources for Egyptian Dynasties as well, such as the Turin Canon.

If you want to know more about God, then this will help aid in a quest for truth.
