Summary
Modern readers of the Bible are time travelers visiting a society and culture very different from their own. Strange customs, unfamiliar words and novel concepts encountered in the Bible's pages can make understanding the Word of God a real challenge. TheAccess Bibleis friendly to people who've never studied the Bible before. It's been carefully written and edited so that those new to the world of Bible study can just pick it up -and start reading. A unique feature of theAccess Bibleis the running commentary which is interspersed with the Bible text. Difficult concepts are clearly explained in terms which everyday readers can easily understand. There's no need to have a dictionary by your side when you're using theAccess Bible. When a technical explanation is required, all of the terms are defined right on the page, as well as in a glossary at the back. History, social contexts, religious practices, the beliefs of ancient peoples - all are explained when the Bible text requires it. In addition, this Bible was designed to contain all the background information needed by believers from a wide spectrum of churches. TheAccess Biblesets a new standard for ease of understanding the Scriptures!
