Scripture.

Every page is packed with expert insight into the customs,

Discover new dimensions of insight to even the most familiar

ancient world.
The Bible was originally written to an ancient people removed
from us by thousands of years and thousands of miles. The
Scriptures include subtle culturally based nuances, undertones,
and references to ancient events, literature and customs that
were intuitively understood by those who first heard the
Scriptures read. For us to hear the Scriptures as they did, we
need a window into their world.
The NKJV Cultural Backgrounds Bible, with notes from Dr. John H.
Walton (Wheaton College) in the Old Testament and Dr. Craig S.
Keener (Asbury Theological Seminary) in the New Testament,
brings to life the ancient world of Scripture for modern
readers.
