This is an excellent study guide for a Christian Bible student who wants a better understanding of the foundation of the Bible from those who have been studying these books for many centuries in their original language. It is useful when researching the exact and original interpretation of a particular passage, and its interesting just to sit and read for pleasure.This book is beautifully bound and is a handsome addition to one's personal library.Using this book reminds me of how much Jewish thought has advanced civilization and how much Christians owe Jews for giving us the basis of our faith.
