Unlocking the Scriptures
Reading the Scripture through Hebrew
You don’t want to miss this book of essays: it will help you to see the Scriptures in a very different light! Even if you have been a student of the Bible for a long time; even if you know your Bible very well, you will be surprised to find that many familiar Bible stories seem almost unrecognizable when read in Hebrew (or at least, with some Hebrew). Through a deeper understanding of the original Hebrew text, you will discover new and fascinating insights – and these hidden treasures of the Hebrew Scriptures will help you more fully understand God’s original plan for humanity – and for your life.
