Through them, the origin and nature of the Christian faith — its claims and values — become meaningful and real to the reader of today. Through identification with these men and women comes the revelation that God works in similar ways today...that He is a personal God and deals directly with people. Careful attention is given to historical facts, revealed by modern archaeological research and from a broad knowledge of ancient literature. An extremely helpful volume for pastors, students, Bible teachers and those wanting a clearer understanding of the Bible. About the Author William Sanford LaSor has studied and taught history, geography and biblical archaeology and Semitic languages. A former pastor and Navy chaplain, he served as a professor of Old Testament at Fuller Theological Seminary until retirement. Table of Contents GREAT PERSONALITIES OF THE OLD TESTAMENT I.
