OLD TESTAMENT INTRODUCTIONS
OT Sections and Books

This section contains concise background information, summaries, interpretation principles and practical applications for the Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament), organized by the various sections and books.  We recommend reading the Preface, which contains our pre-suppositions and goals for this section.  You may also want to check out the OT at a Glance page for a brief one or two sentence overview of each book. 

Navigation Note:  For faster loading, we've placed each category on a separate page.  Links back to this page have been placed at the top of and  throughout the other pages.
