Publisher's summary

In this third edition, noted teacher and gospel scholar David J. Ridges brings the Old Testament to life with his well-known teaching skills. It is much expanded over previous editions and includes almost all of the scripture reading blocks referenced in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' Come, Follow Me for the Old Testament. The format includes background and setting and brief notes within and between the verses.

Understand the Old Testament as never before!

The Old Testament is a most valuable book of scripture. It is the source of several favorite Bible stories many of us heard when we were growing up, such as Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, Noah and the Flood, David and Goliath, Ruth, Daniel in the Lions' Den, and many more. However, far beyond, it is a rich source of gospel doctrines and teachings of the plan of salvation. It teaches the Creation, the Fall, and the Atonement of Christ in many ways, as well as the law of Moses. It teaches the mercy and willingness of Jehovah, the premortal Jesus Christ, to forgive. It teaches and illustrates time and again what kinds of thinking and actions we need to avoid if we desire to remain firmly on the covenant path. And it teaches how to repent and return to Christ, whose arms of mercy are extended all the day long (Isaiah 65:2), inviting us to repent.

David Ridges is a great way to bring understanding to a very important book!

I've attempted to read the Bible quite a few times in my life. But this is a great way to begin, it pops, it's exciting and emotional. I say thank you D. Ridges several times throughout.

Audio version doesn't include ALL of the book

My only complaint is that this audiobook ends on Genesis 11... Where are chapters 12 - 50 of Genesis and the 19 chapters of Exodus?? I do love this series of books and have bought the other 3 volumes of Old Testament Made Easier - with each of those 22 to 27 hours of listening time. I do learn a lot from these commentaries and it gives me hope to hear that God will always win over the evil things. It's amazing to think how the "ancients" lived to be over 900 years old. - Very spiritually uplifting book :)
