This is especially the case with the Old Testament, since its time and cultural setting are so far removed from our own. It's tempting to skip over these problem passages in our personal Bible study or in our preaching and teaching. But if all Scripture is God-breathed and useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, those passages were preserved for our benefit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Navigating Tough Texts of the Old Testament, volume 1 of a planned series, veteran scholar and translator Tremper Longman III guides us through difficult passages in Genesis through Deuteronomy, answering questions like\u003cbr\u003e● Why are there different English translations of Genesis 1:1-2?\u003cbr\u003e● Were the Hebrew midwives wrong to lie to Pharaoh?\u003cbr\u003e● How do we make sense of the purity laws in Leviticus?\u003cbr\u003e● What were the urim and thummim?\u003cbr\u003e● and more\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlong the way, we will understand why English Bible translations differ from one another and become more confident, discerning readers of the entire Bible, not just the difficult passages.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor pastors who preach the whole Bible, students who study it seriously, and readers who have always wanted better answers to the questions they were afraid to ask, Navigating Tough Texts of the Old Testament is the guide you've been waiting for.","brand":"Koorong","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52631820206367,"sku":"9781540971463","price":39.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/koorong.com\/products\/navigating-tough-texts-of-the-old-testament-volume-1-a-guide-to-problem-passages-from-genesis-through-deuteronomy-676904","provider":"Koorong","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
