Overview
In his first installment of the Made Simple series, Smith has given us a quick and easy guide to the Old Testament. Pivotal to the understanding of the New Testament, the first thirty-nine books of the Bible lay out the history, prophecy, and law that set the stage for Christ's coming. In The Old Testament Books Made Simple, Smith succinctly outlines the important happenings of each biblical book, dividing the Old Testament into four key sections: foundation books, framework books, faith books, and focus books.
