Description
Exploring the Old Testament: A Guide to the Historical BooksThe historical books, from Joshua to Ezra and Nehemiah, form the narrative backbone of the Old Testament. Without them the Pentateuch would stop cold and the Prophets would hang in suspension. Even the Psalms and Wisdom literature would lose some of their luster for lack of a setting. Without these historical books the New Testament would be resolving an incomplete narrative, answering a question only half and hesitantly posed. For all these reasons
The historical books, from Joshua to Ezra and Nehemiah, form the narrative backbone of the Old Testament. Without them the Pentateuch would stop cold and the Prophets would hang in suspension. Even the Psalms and Wisdom literature would lose some of their luster for lack of a setting. Without these historical books the New Testament would be resolving an incomplete narrative, answering a question only half and hesitantly posed. For all these reasons and more, it is a tragic fact that many of us today cannot give a brief and coherent account of this story. We fear that books with names like Judges, Kings and Chronicles would bore us. But nothing could be further from the truth. For the story they tell is full of action and intrigue, tragedy and suspense, vivid characters and memorable events. They are the stuff of great art and literature, and they have inspired men and women to lives and deeds of uncommon faith and courage. Exploring these books is essential for a true education, whether religious or otherwise. In this guidebook, Philip E. Satterthwaite and J. Gordon McConville introduce us to the content and the context of these historical books. We view them within the setting of ancient history and history writing, and come to appreciate their literary artistry, their role within the Scriptures of Israel, and their lasting value as theological and ethical resources. Designed especially for students, Exploring the Old Testament, Volume 2: A Guide to the Historical Books overflows with interesting and helpful features that encourage avid exploration and the joy of learning.Binding Type: Paperback

Space-Saving, Stylish, and Surprisingly Strong Closet Upgrade
Color: Black, Size: Pack of 100
I’ve been using these Amazon Basics slim velvet hangers, and they completely changed how organized my closet feels. The biggest difference is how much space they save. Because they’re so thin compared to regular plastic hangers, I was able to fit a lot more clothes in the same closet without it feeling crowded.
The velvet coating is also a great feature. Clothes actually stay in place and don’t slip off, even lighter fabrics like tank tops or blouses. That alone makes getting dressed in the morning easier because I’m not constantly picking things up off the floor.
They feel sturdy too. Even though they are slim, they hold heavier items like jackets and sweaters without bending or breaking. The shape helps keep clothes looking neat and prevents those annoying shoulder bumps that some hangers cause.
I also like the clean black and silver look, it gives the closet a more uniform and organized appearance, which makes everything feel more put together.
Overall, these hangers are a simple but very effective upgrade for any closet. They save space, keep clothes in place, and make everything look more organized without much effort.

Looks more organized than bulky plastic hangers and multiple colors
Color: Black/Rose Gold, Size: Pack of 100
Love these hangers! The cloth helps from shirts slipping off and holds them in place! Stylish and thin so doesn’t take up all space on rack either! I’ve changed all our hangers over to these!
They are very durable and there’s no assembly obviously. I’ve had one break, but that was with a pair of jeans hanging on it and I yanked the jeans instead of pulling the hanger off and taking the jeans off the hanger so I would say they’re pretty durable. There’s a lot of overweight people here and so the jeans and certain items are pretty heavy. I’m able to hang my husband uniforms in sets on them pants and then the shirt over top. Love these hangers.
However, customer service is unreachable and when order you may be waiting for months to receive them!

Love these frames, They are really good quality and feel sturdy, not cheap at all. They were very easy to set up and insert my pictures, which I really appreciate. The size is perfect for posters or photos, and they make everything look much more professional and elegant on the wall. I also like how they fit well with any home decor style

Quality frame - turns a puzzle into art
Color: Black, Size: 19.7x27.6, Color: Black, Size: 19.7x27.6
This puzzle frame worked perfectly for my 50cm x 70cm puzzle—it fits exactly and really transforms the finished puzzle into a beautiful display piece. The frame is well constructed and has a clean, finished look that doesn’t come across as cheap plastic. Mounting the puzzle was very easy, and everything sat securely once in place.
It arrived well packaged with no damage, and the protective plastic sheet is a nice touch. It keeps the puzzle safe while being much lighter than glass, which makes hanging and handling easier.
Overall, this is a quality frame that makes your completed puzzle look like real wall art.
