This classic work by W. Cleon Skousen is designed to make the study of the Bible an inspirational pleasure.

Hundreds of details about the early history of mankind had become entirely lost until the restoration of the gospel. These details about the first 2,000 years of human history are all to be found in this groundbreaking volume. We now know that Adam and Eve had two generations of children before Cain and Abel were born. The exact year of the Great Flood can now be calculated. Details about the golden age of Enoch are now available so we can better understand how the law of consecration works and how it eliminates poverty and crime. Many difficult questions can now be answered: Did the Patriarchs really live for hundreds of years? What about the incredible population growth in ancient times? How has the geography of the earth changed since ancient times? Why were Pagan religions so attractive to ancient peoples? And why did God abhor these Pagan religions so much? All of these enlightening revelations belong to the sweeping panorama of the first 2,000 years of human history.

This well written and fascinating account of the first 2000 years of the story of mankind represents a massive amount of research and the difficult task of creating meaning from snippets from many different scriptures and documented sources. Wonderfully organized and presented.

Brings great understanding and Appreciation of the Old Testament

This is a really good book about the history of the old testament. The final chapter about how the old testament relates to the atonement of Christ was the best chapter.

This a great book!
