 * Old Testament.
 * The Book of Genesis.


 * This exceptional masterpiece of divine literature presents an account of the beginnings of everything in existence. It prepares and establishes an excellent platform for Bible Study. The Lord Himself, God who is Omnipotent, Omnipresent, and Omniscient, started His wonderful work(s) by creating the whole world. This event is essentially a puzzling miracle, a great mystery, perhaps the greatest. He then created Adam and placed him in authority (much like a prefect) over it. The next major event deals with the weakness of man and his downfall as a consequence. Yahweh, Most Kind, Most Forbearing, pardons him. Many ideas expounded in this masterpiece of divine literature are quite similar to those expressed in the literary collections of other schools of divine thought, except the ideology of Yahweh and the universe (as He created and ordered it). Instead of a wonderful and amazing universe of disputing gods  ever in battle, ever ruthless and infinitely oppressive of the people, Yahweh is the Divinity  Most Gracious and Most Loving, ever willing to redeem suffering humans no matter how good or bad their living conditions may be. Subsequent accounts and narrations regarding great and heroic forebears are established as the most remote sources of wisdom on the land, the culture being Hebrew..... 


 * The Book of Exodus.


 * The people of Israel always remember the historic separation and movement away from Egypt as the greatest act of Yahweh showing His infinite and boundless loving care and protection of His people. The faithful and devotees of Yahweh had a grand experience of His glory and highness, His grace and omnipotence. The divine experience with Yahweh on Mount Sinai established an eternal foundation for the morality, religious traditions, systems and culture in Israel..... 


 * The Book of Leviticus.


 * This masterpiece of world literature assembles a wide variety of rules and ritual practices. The rules regarding the Levites (are assembled) first. The main point or idea is the holiness of Yahweh. Yahweh is holy, and the faithful (devotees) should be likewise. And thus there is the discrimination between various kinds of activities or practices, material things, various groups of humankind, to determine which have been removed from the rest as holy or exclusive. Even the God of Israel in His holiness is removed from the group of other gods as truly ‘Holy and Exclusive’..... 


 * The Book of Numbers.


 * A masterpiece of beautiful writings concluding Israel’s roaming. The work includes Israel’s unsuccessful struggle to proceed from the south into Canaan. Majority of the laws made mainly on issues regarding priests, rites of priests, ceremonies, etc.  appear as incidents, trouble-events, etc. and other origins of legal case studies. Yahweh is holy, absolutely holy; and seeks strict compliance with His holiness, orders and laws..... 


 * The Book of Deuteronomy.


 * This wonderful literary masterpiece, Deuteronomy, is a second edition (a new and improved) revision of the Law. There is the possibility that it was the Law Book found in the Temple of Yahweh during the period of improvement by the great sovereign Josiah (around 622 BC). The Book of Deuteronomy obviously employs a lot of ancient or past literary resources. The Book has quite a few prophetic stresses. After a beginning summary or reduction in the history of Israel, and emphasizing the value and importance of faithfulness, Deuteronomy is established on three superior teachings of Moses including the historic Code of Law (12 : 1 -- 26 : 15). The main ideas in the Book, in other words, the central points of the work are Love and Law..... 


 * The Book of Joshua.


 * Joshua’s victory in battle and conquest of the Promised Land is perhaps the most historic record and legacy in the deuteronomic literary masterpieces. But above all, the victory and the land belong to Yahweh (God). As a matter of fact, an overwhelming majority of the narrations of battles fought and victories won are connected with the lands of Benjamin (the small clan of Israel, rich in folklore and general traditional practices). Many accounts and narrations present historical explanation for clearly observable nature, natural and other scenery in the area. The narration of the fall of Jericho, and its consequent ruins is an excellent example stressing that God alone is the Source, responsible for triumphs and conquests, victories and successes in life..... 


 * The Book of Judges.


 * The Book of Judges is a great piece of divine literature spanning two hundred years (2 centuries) of historic achievement and records in Israel from the point of immigration into Canaan (the promised land) to the commencement of the monarchy. From the first pages (of the Work) it is obvious that Israel was a struggling State not an accomplished State. The States were not united, but broken into isolated parts  again and again enduring all kinds of vicious, external attacks. Traditionally, the State of Israel is established as a federation of a dozen sibling-tribes proceeding from a common ancestor, Jacob, directly from his twelve sons. The rulers of Israel (at this point) were exceptionally powerful personalities filled with the capacity and the grace to inspire devotion and zeal in others..... 


 * The Book of Ruth.


 * The Book, Ruth, is a story of faithfulness in a family. The Book was composed a long time ago, possibly around c.800 BC or a few centuries thereafter..... 


 * The Books of Samuel.


 * The Books of Samuel are essentially an extension of the great deuteronomic masterpiece. The narration is initially greatly influenced by the personality of Samuel. Samuel is the final amongst judges, the conclusive ruler who strives to maintain standards of Israel’s loyalty and devotion to God..... 


 * The Books of The Kings.


 * The Books of the Kings are, basically, the final writings of the deuteronomic masterpiece; the last discourses of the deuteronomic study. They present the gradual collapse and fall of the kingdom in which Solomon once shone in glory. King Solomon was unquestionably one of the great personalities in Israel, ever remembered for the building of the Great Temple which is perhaps the greatest of his many achievements..... 


 * The Books of Chronicles.


 * The Books, Chronicles, are a masterpiece of divine literature re-explaining the meaning of the royal era from the era of king David onwards. The idea of devotion and service dominates the work. King David is the main personality and source of the public worship methodology in the Temple. Due to his prominence, fame and influence, he is never faulted; and any past deeds or misdeeds that might damage, embarrass or disgrace him are promptly concealed or sealed off..... 


 * The Book of Ezra.


 * The Book of Ezra is a great piece of historic and divine literature dealing with the post-exilic, critical moment of re-settlement of the Congregations of faithful in Israel around 539 B.C. This is a point which is of spectacular significance in the future prosperity of Israel and the people of Yahweh..... 


 * The Book of Nehemiah.


 * The Book of Nehemiah is a beautiful masterpiece of post-exilic, divine literature written probably around 430 B.C. Nehemiah himself ruled in Israel from 445 B.C. to 433 B.C. on the re-settlement of the Congregations of the faithful, the remodelling of the City of Jerusalem, and on the re-construction of the Great Walls..... 


 * The Book of Esther.


 * The treasure of divine literature established here is a pleasantly clear narration of secret plots and women secular struggle to show or make clear the point of Yahweh’s help and defence of the faithful and wrathful penalties upon their enemies..... 


 * The Book of Job.
 * The Book of Job is quite a thought-provoking masterpiece of divine literature. The traditional issues of sin, divine punishment (the wrath of God), and suffering (as a consequence) are carefully studied..... 


 * The Book of Psalms.


 * This is the songbook of the faithful in the land of Israel. It consists of poetic supplications for almost any situation in the life of the faithful. It is used in the Great Temple for divine service and devotions to Yahweh..... 


 * The Book of Proverbs.
 * This literary masterpiece of divine wisdom consists of two collections of famous sayings regarded as belonging to Solomon. They are pretty clear contemplations regarding life in the world; divine meditations full of intelligence and life, advice given to the learned  decent men of learning at Court. Solomon’s great achievements as monarch of Israel included the establishment of the Court. His wisdom throughout the land of Israel was unique and unparalleled.


 * The Book of Ecclesiastes.


 * The writer of the Book of Ecclesiastes is completely mystified. He wanders and roams exploring idea after idea in search of solutions to the many problems of life. But again and again he dismisses traditional ideas on ethical standards. For Qoheleth (the Writer of the Book, Preacher and Monarch of Israel), life was both hateful and distasteful (Ecclesiastes 2 : 17). And yet, life was also quite merry and joyful. (Ecclesiastes 5 :19, and 9: 7 -- 9). Astonished by the sheer Emptiness, Pain and Suffering in life; the abject Vanity, Illusion and Unreality of life; he rejects everything and finds neither contentment nor happiness in affections, luxuries and affluence, business successes and diligence. He acknowledges God, however, as the Author and Origin of life; and the ultimate Sovereign and Monarch above all..... 


 * The Song of Songs.
 * The Song of Songs is a masterpiece of musical literature and composition. It may be referred to as the Best of Songs, the King of Songs, the Queen of Songs, the Star of Songs, etc. The Song of Songs is a gathering of love songs. Spiritually, it is regarded as portraying the love and affection of God for the faithful..... 


 * The Book of Isaiah.
 * The prophecy of the holy messenger of God, Isaiah, is structured by his special insight and foresight regarding the magnificence, power, purity, and holiness of Yahweh dealing with the misdeeds and evils of humanity. Ever admiring the greatness and infinite extent of the dominion of Yahweh, Isaiah proclaims His words denouncing moral relapse and spiritual negligence, and the enthusiasm of the monarchs of Judah to cultivate friendships with faithless rulers and peoples instead of holding on to God and maintaining absolute trust in Him..... 


 * The Book of Jeremiah.


 * The Prophet of God, Jeremiah, is a pretty attractive personality. He prefers solitary living and withdraws from crowds and chaos. Prophet Jeremiah never liked being a prophet. He really found it disgusting being a messenger or prophet of doom. And yet he was basically trapped in the confusion, tremendous disturbance and unrest as the institution of kingship in Israel gradually approached its final end..... 


 * The Lamentations.
 * Following the fall of Jerusalem around 587 B.C., these five pieces of poetic literature better known as the Lamentations were composed. The City of Jerusalem was obviously in grief and pain. But in spite of the reality of all these problems, there was still that absolute, unwavering faithfulness (that confidence in God as Almighty and Omnipotent)..... 


 * The Book of Ezekiel.


 * This literary masterpiece expounds on the divine intuition and foresights of Prophet Ezekiel. The Prophet demonstrates in his work a very high imaginative capacity which has motivated and influenced divine sculptors, painters, etc. for hundreds of years..... 


 * The Book of Daniel.


 * This masterpiece of divine literature was penned during the Syrian era when the monarch Antiochus Epiphanes reigning between 167 B.C. and 164 B.C. mistreated and troubled the Jews. He tried to lure the faithful away from preserving or keeping the Law. The first half a dozen chapters are biographical, establishing the historic account of Daniel as an authority of wisdom, of Hebrew origin, working under the Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar who reigned between 605 B.C. and 562 B.C. approximately, and his heirs; at the splendid courthouse..... 


 * The Book of Hosea.


 * The Prophet of God, Hosea, taught during the final years of Jewish reign in Israel’s northern monarchy. There was the Assyrian threat which Israel struggled repeatedly but unsuccessfully to ward off. Condemning corrupted liturgies, perverted services, wicked and unjust practices, Prophet Hosea declared that faithfulness and loyalty to God was the right way..... 


 * The Book of Joel.


 * An invitation to repentance and humble supplication is, basically, the theme of Joel 1 and Joel 2. Joel 3 and Joel 4 (the concluding chapters of Joel) convey the assurance of God’s redemption of all humankind and a restoration of the glory and prosperity of the Land. Prophet Joel probably accomplished this prophetic masterpiece around c. 400 BC during the post-exilic era..... 


 * The Book of Amos.


 * Amos was originally from the southern region. He was a shepherd from the countryside. Proceeding northward, toward the more affluent areas, he spoke to his people and instructed the Word of God. He spoke publicly against the ills of accumulating excessive possessions and treasures, he was outspoken against injustice, miscarriage of justice, and the retardation and lack of progress in embracing foreign religions..... 


 * The Book of Obadiah.
 * The prophecy given here is remarkably brief, not long, not tedious. The Word of the Lord comes against the Edomites. The Edomites were obviously instrumental in bringing devastation to Jerusalem. The City consequently fell around 587 BC following an invasion from surrounding enemies. It is noteworthy that the first nine verses are quite similar to the 49th Chapter of Jeremiah. The Lord is both wrathful and vengeful against the Edomites. The date of this prophecy must be some time near the historic date above..... 
 * The Book of Jonah.


 * A fictional rather than a historical masterpiece of divine literature, the prophecy of Jonah employs a lot of humour in unveiling faults and weaknesses. However, the love of God, being both infinite and boundless, reaches all humans everywhere. This brings reform and a new awareness to the faithful people of God after the exile. Usually, one would expect the prophet of God to be obedient and the people being merely human to be disobedient (where such an error exists). However, in this Book, it was the prophet of God (Jonah) who was disobedient. The Ninevites (mere humans) were perfectly obedient. One of life’s little ironies..... 


 * The Book of Micah.
 * Prophet Micah, like all other prophets of God, hated evil. Evil was evil, bad and hateful. When a man with little powers did evil, the evil he did was little. When a man with great powers did evil, the evil he did was great. When a man with absolute powers did evil, the evil he did was absolute. Prophet Micah had great wisdom and therefore tried to solve the problems of Evil in society from great places (from the top). He took the Word to evil judges and ruthless dictators. Prophet Micah lived at the same time as Prophet Isaiah, and therefore the dates of his prophecies would be pretty near the dates of Isaiah’s..... 


 * The Book of Nahum.
 * The Book starts with an introductory piece of poetry, an alphabetical literary masterpiece describing the wrath of God. A prophecy automatically follows from the piece of poetry. The Word of God is against Nineveh, affirming its imminent fall. The signs indicating impending danger and doom are soon confirmed as Nineveh falls to destruction and ruins (around 612 BC. The date of the prophecy must not be very distant from this historic date)..... 


 * The Book of Habakkuk.
 * This piece of (divine) literature consists of two distinct parts and a concluding psalm. The piece is both diligently and meticulously written. The first section weighs the consequences and hardships encountered as a result of the apparent victory of evil-doers. The second section invokes divine wrath upon the men and women of Babylon who were arrogant enemies. Their offences were many before God, and before men. From historic events at the time, the prophecy can be reasonably dated between 605 BC -- 597 BC..... 


 * The Book of Zephaniah.
 * The teachings of the Prophet Zephaniah were mostly instructions calling for reform. The monarchy of King Josiah (640 -- 609 BC) came with spectacular reforms. The main point of Zephaniah’s prophecy, in other words, the central idea in a nutshell is the Day of Yahweh. On this Day all the people will be cleansed. The survivors will be both graceful and pious..... 


 * The Book of Haggai.
 * The prophecy of the Prophet Haggai is the first in Jerusalem after the return from Exile. The historic date given for this prophecy is sometime around 520 BC (possibly during the months of August through December). Haggai’s prophecy focuses on Temple reconstruction in spite of the generally negative atmosphere of the community of faithful returning home again after a long exile..... 

Section 1 consists of the first eight chapters (Zech 1 -- 8). In this section, there are eight recorded revelations of the Holy Prophet of God, Zechariah. These special revelations have also been carefully studied for their meanings. These Works of the Holy Prophet Zechariah are dated, historically, 520 B.C. -- 517 B.C. (post-exilic era). Since this prophecy came in the post-exilic Israel, the issues of main concern here are similar to those of the Holy Prophet Haggai (also post-exilic)..... ''
 * The Book of Zechariah.
 * ''The literary masterpiece of Zechariah is divided into two sections.


 * The Book of Malachi.
 * This fine piece of divine literature obviously originated after the arrival home, that is, after many years of hardships and challenges in exile. The most reasonable date for the Work is perhaps around the middle of the fifth century BC -- post-Babylonian era. The actual author of the Work is unknown. The word ‘Malachi’ translated in the English tongue only means ‘My Messenger’. There are six briefly written sections in the prophecy, the main issues of concern being the Day of the Lord (God) and decency (of practice) according to the ethical standards..... 


 * New Testament.


 * The Gospel of Matthew.

(a) Saint Mark stresses and focuses on development and furtherance of the companions’ wisdom and knowledge of God and Christ. Saint Matthew, however, declares at the very beginning that Christ is a monarch..... ''
 * ''The Gospel according to Matthew is a masterpiece of (world) divine literature. The main focus of the Work is (on) the Kingdom of Paradise. There are a few noteworthy issues to discuss here.


 * The Gospel of Mark.


 * The Gospel of Mark is held by large multitudes of Christians as the first gospel to have been authored. Mark is therefore the pioneer developing a special field of literature which may be called ‘Gospel Literature’ or ‘Good News Literature’. This field of study deals primarily with the reign of Yahweh in Christ..... 


 * The Gospel of Luke.


 * The Gospel according to Luke is a pretty friendly masterpiece, focussing basically on Christ’s exceptional kindness and forbearance. Christ did particularly invite the poor and the needy, the faithful and the faithless all humankind to salvation. Luke excels the other gospel authorities (Matthew, Mark, and John) in Greek. His Greek is complex, fairly advanced; so that his Work is really for an enlightened Greek audience or caste..... 


 * The Gospel of John.


 * John’s Gospel, the final gospel, is unique and outstanding in quite a few ways. The gospel is developed on much wider ranges or scopes than its predecessors (Matthew, Mark, and Luke). Events are expounded and thoroughly analyzed, and the Signs are properly and fully interpreted. Jesus Himself is the divine message from Yahweh. Personally, He substitutes for the Holy Temple and related establishments among the faithful..... 


 * The Acts of the Apostles.


 * The Acts of the Apostles is a special narration of the early development, movement, and acceptance of Christianity across the nations Judaea, Palestine, and Rome which was the Central and the Greatest City in the empire at the time. The key personalities and servants of God are Saints Peter and Paul..... 


 * The Letter To The Romans.


 * This masterpiece of divine writings, the letter of Paul to the Romans, is the largest of the letters written by Saint Paul. It is a great Work dealing basically with his discourses on Law and Faith. The issue of Law and Faith has previously been dealt with in Galatians...... 


 * The First Letter To The Corinthians.


 * The Christian Congregation at Corinth was quite active and vibrant. Corinth itself was a Port filled with many daily activities. This is the first known letter from Saint Paul to the Christian Congregation at Corinth...... 


 * The Second Letter To The Corinthians.


 * In this wonderful masterpiece of the divine letters of Saint Paul to the Church in Corinth, Saint Paul is still very interested in advancing his friendship with the Congregation of the faithful. This leads to the dissemination of the wonderful Works of Jesus Christ, the light in which we are renewed, changed into that which we contemplate...... 


 * The Letter To The Galatians.


 * A pretty thorny issue among the first Congregations of the faithful was the conduct, the behaviour toward the Jewish Faith. The first Galatian converts (the new faithful of Galatia) had been convinced regarding the necessity to abide by strict Jewish practices, traditions, and the Law. Saint Paul responds accordingly, ..... 


 * The Letter To The Ephesians.


 * The Letter of Paul to the Ephesians marks a climax in Paul’s pastoral ministry and mission. There were many disputes at the time over the universal powers that dominate and rule the world. Saint Paul steps in and presents the throne of Jesus Christ as a throne of boundless and eternal glory, honour, and kingship...... 


 * The Letter To The Philippians.

- who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form he humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even death on a cross. Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. - ( Philippians 2 : 6 – 11 ) ..... ''
 * ''This letter is an excellent piece of literature full of glad tidings, tidings of good companionship in the world and in the Lord. St. Paul usually did not accept presents or offerings, the Philippian Congregation was the only exception. Herein there are quite a few important contemplations and thoughts on St. Paul having to embrace his own challenges and hardships in life while sharing simultaneously in the Passion of Christ toward the final and eternal glory of God. As humans meet their downfall and doom through arrogance, the arrogance of Adam, so also humans meet their exaltation and glory through heedfulness, the heedfulness of Christ.


 * The Letter To The Colossians.


 * The letter of Paul to the Colossians deals fundamentally with some new ideas regarding the throne and authority of Jesus Christ. The Congregation of faithful in Colossae (mainly Jewish in origin) were attracted to the veneration of angels and diverse cosmic forces..... 


 * The Letters To The Thessalonians.


 * The first of these spectacular pieces of divine literature, that is, the First Thessalonians is quite possibly the first letter of Saint Paul published or made available in Church. Saint Paul authored this brilliant masterpiece around A.D. 50..... 


 * The Pastoral Epistles.


 * The Pastoral Epistles are basically a set of letters to Timothy and Titus, offering guidance and direction to the companions and followers of Saint Paul regarding pastoral governance of the Church. The Work presents a spectacular perception and understanding of these Churches as they progress into the new era of Christianity..... 


 * The Letter To Philemon.


 * A Letter from St. Paul. A slave who had escaped from his master heard the good news and embraced Christianity. He later became an assistant working directly under St. Paul’s authority. Visiting his old master again, he presented him with the letter. A short and beautiful piece of writing radiant with Christian love, faith, and hope..... 


 * The Letter To The Hebrews.


 * The actual author of this divine masterpiece is unknown. The Work was added, however, to the great writings of Saint Paul, and around the 2nd century, took the caption ‘To The Hebrews’..... 


 * The Letter of James.


 * The Epistle of James is more precisely a discourse on religious and moral issues than just a few lines of communication. The author establishes his teachings on both Old and New Testamental Theology, and writes brilliantly, drawing upon Greek cultural beauty and distinctions..... 


 * The First Letter of Peter.
 * This piece of divine literature is addressed to the Congregations of faithful in Asia Minor. The goal of the letter is to strengthen the Churches and bring hope to the people during periods of hardships or distress. A true devotee or faithful must learn to endure life’s challenges and difficulties while partaking in the passion of Christ..... 


 * The Second Letter of Peter.


 * The final Epistle of Peter exhorts humanity with zeal to be patient while looking forward to the Day of the Master and Saviour Christ Jesus. All should be watchful, mindful, diligent, and determined. It advises sternly against deceitful and ignoble behaviour, as well as greed, rashness, the gross evils and unethical conduct that dominate humanity..... 
 * The Three Letters of John.


 * The First Letter of John and the Gospel According to John have fundamentally or basically the same central ideas. The letter makes clear the divine personality and powers of Christ. He is the Way, He is the Truth and Life. No one can come to the Father except through Him (John 14 : 6)..... 


 * The Letter of Jude.


 * The Letter of Jude is a very brief epistle advising sternly against deceitful and ignoble behaviour, as well as the gross evils and immorality that dominate the human existence and world in general..... 


 * The Book of Revelation.


 * The Revelation to John, the final biblical masterpiece, is a special miracle which renews again and again human hope in God. The Revelation is a divine insight and foresight of salvation from the suffering, challenges and hardships being experienced and endured by the faithful; and a declaration of joyful, lustrous, and splendid ages to come.....

'Along with medicine, he was also a patron of architects, knowledge and scribes. James Henry Breasted says of Imhotep:

"In priestly wisdom, in magic, in the formulation of wise proverbs; in medicine and architecture; this remarkable figure of Zoser's reign left so notable a reputation that his name was never forgotten. He was the patron spirit of the later scribes, to whom they regularly poured out a libation from the water-jug of their writing outfit before beginning their work." '

'Imhotep extracted medicine from plants.'

'Imhotep was portrayed as a priest with a shaven head, seated and holding a papyrus roll. Occasionally he was shown clothed in the archaic costume of a priest.'

'Of the details of his life, very little has survived though numerous statues and statuettes of him have been found. Some show him as an ordinary man who is dressed in plain attire. Others show him as a sage who is seated on a chair with a roll of papyrus on his knees or under his arm. Later, his statuettes show him with a god like beard, standing, and carrying the ankh and a scepter.'

'He is represented seated with a papyrus scroll across his knees, wearing a skullcap and a long linen kilt. We can interpret the papyrus as suggesting the sources of knowledge kept by scribes in the "House of Life". The headgear identifies Imhotep with Ptah, and his priestly linen garment symbolizes his religious purity.'
