This handy resource allows the reader to quickly summarize or review all the pertinent details about any Old Testament book. More than a Bible handbook but less than a commentary, Nelson's New Illustrated Old Testament Survey provides a section by section breakdown of issues and topics dealt with in the Hebrew Scriptures.

It includes:

• Complete but concise outlines of every Old Testament book
• A succinct introduction for each book
• Sections that identify each Bible author's theological emphasis
• Inserts that highlight real-life insights
• Arguments for the unity of the original manuscripts
