Showing results for "Moses" in Bibles

During the 40 years in the wilderness, all the Israelites who had left Egypt die: 603,548 of the 603, 550 men—all except Joshua and Caleb. On the Plains of Jericho, Moses tells the new generation their story.

At the end of the book he dies.

Job is a good and prosperous man, possible the best man of his time. Then, without warning, all that he has worked for is stripped from him in a sudden series of terrible disasters.

The five books of Moses are referred to as the Pentateuch, and encompasses the first five books of the Old Testament: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. These books give the foundation for Jewish law and religion, and outlined the covenants given to Jewish people by their God. It is also largely the story of Moses, the man chosen to lead God’s people into the home he had placed for them.

The historical books of the Bible span hundreds of years of the Israelites' history, beginning with their conquest of the Promised Land and carrying on through the rule of judges and the reign of kings. This volume also records the eventual defeat of Israel by the Babylonians and their return from exile many years later to rebuild the holy city of Jerusalem. Throughout these events is a continuous cycle of disobedience, judgment and repentance, depicting the consequences of sin but also the infinite mercy of God for the truly penitent.
