Most Helpful Customer Reviews 81 of 82 people found the following review helpful: 4.0 out of 5 stars Timeless Textbooks, April 4, 2000 By  laurie klett (Tinton Falls New Jersey) - See all my reviews Journey through the Bible is a book our family has used for education, art, and leisure reading. The book has been a great resource for factual Bible information as well providing back-drop for biblical stories and settings. Main Biblical stories are lifted out and highlighted in such a way that much clarity is shed on Biblical truth. For instance The plagues are condensed and reference to which Egyptian God is being attacked by each plague. The book stands alone as a great reference but also works well with other educational literature. The pictures provide aid in understanding background culture and setting i.e showing what a zigguret could have looked like with several differnt examples. The information is fresh, clear and concise.
