The Unseen Realm: Recovering the Supernatural Worldview of the Bible$37.99
The book was easy to read and provided a helpful background to the supernatural worldview of the Israelites, which we should consider when interpreting the Bible. The discussion around language and grammar was also presented clearly and can be understood by us laity.

Another Worldview?
An excellent read if you want to know a different worldview of the ancient near east culture. This book also explains the tough passages in the OT.
