Septuaginta : An Abridged Readers Edition – Seventy Selected Chapters From
$34.95
Septuaginta: An Abridged Reader’s Edition offers a curated selection of seventy chapters from the Greek Old Testament as it appears in the Rahlfs-Hanhart revised Septuaginta, laid out in a clear and readable format. The included passages generally fit one or more of the following criteria: they record key milestones in the history of Israel and Judah; they are particularly influential for the writers of the New Testament; they are helpful in providing the reader with the overall “feel” of a given biblical book. Select texts from the Apocrypha are included that will be interesting to non-specialist readers. The included passages cover all the major genres of the Old Testament: Pentateuch (16 texts), historical books (16 texts), poetry and proverbial books (17 texts), prophetic books (21 texts).
In order to facilitate natural and seamless reading of the text, every word occurring 100 times or fewer in the Rahlfs-Hanhart text (excluding proper names)–as well as every word that occurs more than 100 times in the Rahlfs-Hanhart text but fewer than 30 times in the Greek New Testament–is accompanied by a footnote that provides a contextual gloss for the word and (for verbs only) full parsing. Additionally, an appendix (glossary) provides a complete alphabetized list of common vocabulary (namely, all the words that are not accompanied by a footnote), with glosses and (as applicable) comparison of a word’s usage in the Septuagint to its usage in the New Testament.
All of these combined features will make Septuaginta: An Abridged Reader’s Edition an indispensable resource for biblical scholars and an excellent tool for improving one’s comprehension of the Greek language.

Israel And The Church
$16.99Add to cartAs the day of the Lord rapidly draws near, we must appreciate God’s plans for all His people
To truly grasp Bible prophecy, we must first understand how God’s promises to Israel compliment His vision for the church. While some believe God has forsaken Israel for the church, this goes against the nature of the faithful Lord we find in Scripture.In his latest book, native Israeli and bestselling author Amir Tsarfati makes clear what the Bible says about God’s unique master plans for His two chosen groups, Israel and the church. Amir gets to the heart of key questions, such as…
*Do the promises God made to the Old Testament nation of Israel still apply to the Jewish people today?
*Has God replaced rebellious Israel with the church?
*Now that the church exists, does Israel possess a distinct role in the present age?
*How are current events in Israel relevant to the church?
*What should the church’s attitude be toward Israel?
Israel and the Church provides a fascinating look at all that God has prepared for His two peoples-and why it’s so relevant to us today!
