Description
(© 2013) This textbook has been found in conformity with the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
The revised edition of The Old Testament: Our Call to Faith and Justice covers the remarkable journey of God's Chosen People and their journey in Scripture. As with any relationship, the divine-human one described in the Old Testament has dramatic episodes of jealousy and angry disappointment, but also shows moments of moving love, compassion, and forgiveness. The Jewish people forged an intimate relationship with God that was brought to fullness in the coming of God s Son, Jesus Christ. This text also includes a Catholic Handbook for Faith, an appendix section with a wealth of information to help students review material they have covered in other religion courses.
Among the new features of this revised edition:
Table of Contents
Foreword
1 Preparing for the Journey: Ten Frequently Asked Questions
2 Maps for the Journey: Geographical, Historical, and Literature Context
3 Stories for the Journey: Creation and the Founding of A People
4 The Journey Begins to the Promised Land: The Exodus
5 The Journey Takes New Shape: A People at Home
6 The Monarchy: The Journey Takes a New Direction
7 God s Prophets: At the Heart of the Journey
