Solomon, the Queen of Sheba, David, Goliath, the Witch of Endor,
Absalom, the Song of Songs - the very names conjure up visions of
intrigue, romance and daring. But the "Golden Age" of Israel
supplies us with far more than marvelous tales of adventure and
romance. Behind the stories lie enduring principles which are as
valid today as they were then. Our very language owes many of its
figures of speech to that era.
This book is part of a multi-volume biblical survey course. The
twenty-nine studies in this volume cover not only the events of the
greatest era of Israelite history, but also the "Wisdom Literature"
which dates from the time. In addition, the lessons provide
practical applications which can help us in our lives today. Among
the subjects covered are: peer pressure, loyalty vs. expediency,
friendship, leadership, repentance and romantic love.
The author also includes an essay on whether the biblical texts
are reliable and historically accurate.
Other volumes in this series explore different periods of Old
Testament history. Titles include:
Beginnings and Patriarchs
Exodus and Wanderings
Conquest and Judges
