In the next nine lessons, we will study various crucial matters in each of the sixty-six books of the Bible. These lessons will provide a general overview of each book of the Bible and of the Bible itself. We encourage you to do your best to remember the key points for each book.
The following topics are addressed for each book: the writer(s) of the book, the place where it was written, the time period it covers, the background and circumstances that may have influenced the writer(s), the central thought expressed by the writer(s) as it relates to the background, the subject and general sketch, and the main sections. The subject is an abstract of the general sketch, while the general sketch includes the crucial points of the book.
