It is crucial that students understand the ancient times surrounding the Bible if they are to have a good grasp of the Bible. God teaches us through stories about His people. This book is your introduction to the Mesopotamian world of the patriarchs, the Egyptian world of the Exodus, the Babylonian world of Daniel, the Persian world of Esther, and other Bible stories that show us not only the faithfulness of our God, and the greatness of our privileges, but also the marvelous wisdom of the plan of salvation.
