Somewhere between a simple summary and a seminary degree, there's a place for avid readers of the Bible to engage with the great ideas of the Old Testament. Whether you're coming to the Bible for the first time or the fiftieth year, Left of Matthew will invite you to explore the source of your faith, to read and reflect on the Old Testament for yourself. With keen insight and thought-provoking questions, the study guide moves through nine key Biblical themes (like creation, sin, and the Messiah). Each of the studies originates in a foundational text from the Old Testament, traces the idea's development through at least two significant New Testament passages, and asks readers to relate what they are learning to issues in contemporary life. Use this study guide for personal growth or small group interaction. Either way, you'll find yourself beckoned beyond a storybook appreciation of the Scriptures into a constructive encounter with the Word that formed, and transformed, the world. Left of Matthew is the Old Testament counterpart to the New Testament study guide, Right of Malachi.
