"Studies in Old Testament History" by Jesse Lyman Hurlbut is a journey through the ancient world of the Bible, from the earliest stories to the time just before the New Testament. It's like a map that guides readers through important events and shares how the nation of Israel grew and what its purpose was supposed to be. The author makes it clear that the Old Testament is like the first part of a bigger story, with the New Testament coming later. It talks about big happenings like a huge flood, how different groups of people spread out, and when Abraham moved to the land. And it is filled with handy tips designed to assist students and teachers so that they can really understand what they're reading.
