Welcome to the books of the Bible!

In these next few episodes, we'll go through all 73 (!!) books of the Bible - both the Old Testament and the New Testament. We'll briefly summarise each book, and discuss what it's about, what its key themes are, and where it sits in the Bible and the broader narrative of salvation history.

The aim of these episodes is to provide us with a bird's-eye view of the whole Bible, to help equip us to begin reading it, or to read it more deeply.

In this episode, we'll look at the following books:

THE PENTATEUCH

Genesis
Exodus
Leviticus
Numbers
Deuteronomy

THE HISTORICAL BOOKS

Joshua
Judges
Ruth
1 and 2 Samuel
1 and 2 Kings
1 and 2 Chronicles
Ezra
Nehemiah
Tobit
Judith
Esther
1 and 2 Maccabees.
