The Bible has been the most influential book in world history because its message originated with God and it resolves the most pressing human need: reconciliation with Him.

It is the Word of God in the words of man. Ultimately it has one Author—God Himself—and one storyline from beginning to end. But it can also be looked at as a collection of individual books with different authors, settings, and themes.

This book is designed to answer specific questions you may have about the background, purpose, and themes found in God’s Holy Word. To help you find specific questions you may have, we have divided this book into five sections and included definitions of specific biblical terms to further your understanding.
