You will learn what social and political events transpired during the Intertestamental Period that led to a movement of numerous “false messiahs” whose military pursuits splintered the Jews into various disjointed sects—each with their own misguided, documented messianic expectations.

This book tells the stories of young saints who lived — and often died — with heroic faith. From Agnes of Rome to Charles Lwanga, Joan of Arc to Dominic Savio, these inspiring lives show that holiness is possible at any age. Through courage, sacrifice, and trust in God, these boys and girls, peasants and kings, answered Christ’s call and became examples of virtue for all generations.

Bathsheba is one of the most prominent and complex female figures in the Old Testament, forever linked to the infamous Biblical narrative involving King David. Initially married to Uriah the Hittite, a loyal and honorable soldier, her story is one of desire, power, betrayal, and consequence found primarily in the books of 2 Samuel and 1 Kings.

The wise men didn't arrive on a single starry night, in a stable bustling with shepherds. Their journey was a grueling, months-long quest across treacherous deserts and forbidding mountains, not a peaceful stroll to a manger. These were not gentle kings, but powerful, influential astrologers, so potent that their mere arrival in Jerusalem could send a paranoid king into a panic. They were men of power, science, and wealth, driven by an unshakeable conviction that a new king had been born, and they would stop at nothing to find him. Forget the gentle fable you know.

Smith offers a compelling, meticulously researched journey through the life of the man known as Jesus—stripped of church dogma, theological filters, and modern interpretations.

Il nome del libro, con la ripetizione della parola "cantico", secondo il modo di costruire le frasi degli antichi ebrei, è da considerarsi come un superlativo e andrebbe reso come "il più sublime tra i cantici". "Il Cantico dei cantici" è un testo laico derivato e copiato da alcuni poemi della Mesopotamia. È un canto nuziale entrato nel canone biblico "a furor di popolo". La parola "Dio" non è mai menzionata. Viene conosciuto anche come Cantico di Salomone, poiché se ne attribuisce la paternità all'antico re di Israele del X secolo a.C., Salomone.

The powerful testimonies of 11 widows of the Bible are brought to narrative life in lyrical, visceral prose that brings listeners deep inside the women's grief, strength, and faith. Full of both haunting and hope, Not Alone connects Biblical widows' voices in a chorus of commiseration that reminds us what it means to love - and what it means to live with God.

Mary Magdalene is one of the most influential symbols in the history of Christianity - yet, if you look in the Bible, you'll find only a handful of verses that speak of her. How did she become such a compelling saint in the face of such paltry evidence? In her effort to answer that question, Cynthia Bourgeault examines the Bible, church tradition, art, legend, and newly discovered texts to see what's there.

Il Cantico dei Cantici è considerato uno dei testi più enigmatici e controversi della Bibbia: è un componimento poetico millenario, scritto probabilmente nel IV secolo a. C. E' stato fra gli ultimi libri ad essere incluso nella Bibbia ebraica, probabilmente perché non parla né di Dio né di Israele, né è il racconto di una visione profetica.

The Apocrypha ("hidden things") are contemporaneous with the Old Testament, but were not officially accepted as part of the Bible when the Hebrew "canon" was set. They did, however, form part of the Greek Scriptures and came into English Bibles by that route. The writings of the Apocrypha run the whole gamut of literary genres: histories, romances, devotional works, proverbs, and sermons. Many complement parts of the Old Testament, and listeners will recognize some familiar Biblical characters in the narratives, such as Daniel and Esther. 

In How to Read the Bible, Harvard professor James Kugel leads the listener chapter by chapter through the "quiet revolution" of recent biblical scholarship, showing time and again how radically the interpretations of today''s researchers differ from what people have always thought.

This isn’t a children’s Bible storybook. It’s a transformative guide that reveals how Scripture’s timeless wisdom can meet you where you are today.

Esau is one of the most Enigmatic characters in the Bible. His birth alone is strange to say the least. "He came out red, covered in hair from head to toe like a hairy cloak." What if I told you there is much more to this guy's story, but has been lost to us throughout the ages. That his story is scattered in pieces throughout other ancient "extra biblical" books. This is a story of what we would call today a Bigfoot. This story goes back to the garden of Eden, a serpent, supernatural garments, and a birthright.

In Jesus: The Son of God, Stephen McFarlane invites listeners to examine the evidence, logic, and meaning behind that question. This book explores the life, claims, and impact of Jesus Christ using historical and philosophical insight rather than religious tradition alone. Through ten clear and thought-provoking chapters, McFarlane presents a reasoned case for faith — one that bridges the gap between belief and evidence. You’ll discover how history, morality, and logic all point toward the truth of Jesus as the divine Son of God and why this truth still changes lives today.
