Overview

Part of a ten-volume encyclopaedia, this reference series is designed to introduce young people to the world of the Bible - the people, the history, the beliefs, the backgrounds - and explains why the Bible continues to inspire people today. This third book in the series traces the story of God's dealings with people from creation to the time of Moses and the great escape from Egypt. It sets the events of these times into the context of the Bible.
