Listening to the Language of the Bible is a devotional guide for discovering the richness of the Scriptures in their Hebraic setting. By examining the Hebrew and Jewish cultural context of some of the Bible’s seemingly odd phrases, it shares insights that clarify reading and deepen Bible study. It also explores the sayings of Jesus in light of the Jewish culture of his time. With many additional references, the book is useful as a continuing reference for Bible reading.
“This is an excellent guide for discovering the richness of the Scriptures in their Hebraic setting. It’s wonderful – balanced, simple to understand, yet packed with deep information.” – Robin Sampson, President, Heart of Wisdom Publishing, Stafford, VA
