"This easy-to-understand guide to the Old Testament, from the creation story of Genesis through the prophecy of Malachi, will help you to make sense of the Old Testament words that God had written for the world to read. Connecting Sinai to Calvary brings readers face-to face with their ancient ancestors in faith, It tells the story of God's chosen people, who worshiped the one true God and who also tested the patience of that same merciful God. From its enlightening perspective, Connecting Sinai to Calvary shows today's readers that a loving God was intimately involved in the daily life of his Old Testament people. But the author John Jeske, a forceful writer who taught the Old Testament in a lively style for many years, also connects the dots between a remote mountaintop in Sinai and a lonely hill outside Jerusalem. Jeske leads readers to conclude that Jesus Christ is the central figure in the Old Testament." From the back of the book.
