A verse by verse Commentary on the Book of Ezra. It is believed by most Bible students that Ezra is the author of the book which bears his name. His great grandfather was Hilkiah who was the high priest during Josiah’s reign (Ezra 7:1; II Kings 22:8). Ezra’s priestly heritage can be traced back to Aaron (Ezra 7:1-5). It is noteworthy that the last two verses of II Chronicles and the first few verses of Ezra are almost identical, which leads some to believe that it is possible that Ezra may have authored both books of Chronicles. The book of Ezra deals with the return of the Jewish exiles to Jerusalem from Babylon, once their 70 years of captivity by Nebuchadnezzar had ended. Four ...

A verse by verse Commentary on the Book of James. James is the author of this epistle; thought to be written around 45 A.D. He is the half-brother of the Lord Jesus Christ (Matt.13:55; Gal.1:19) and the full brother of Judas/Jude who wrote the book of Jude. James was a leader in the early church in Jerusalem (Acts 12:17; 21:18), also he was the moderator of the church council described in Acts 15. The book of James is known as a general epistle, called such because it was not addressed to any local church, but to believers in general (twelve tribes scattered abroad). It was most likely the first New Testament book to be written, but the last to be accepted into the canon of Scriptur ...

Many Christians have difficulty reconciling the Biblical descriptions of Creation with the origins of life as revealed by modern science. However, there is no conflict between modern science and ancient scripture, only a contrived conflict between modern science and a modern reading of ancient scripture, a reading that is tragically displaced from historical and cultural contexts and uninformed of ancient literary devices. This book situates the scriptural accounts of Creation within their proper historical, cultural and literary contexts. Because this book examines the stories of creation as found in the Torah and the Christian Bible, it addresses that which may be of interest to Jew an ...
