STORIES FROM THE HEBREW BIBLE

First in a series of three, this section consists of 109 easy-to-read stories from the Old Testament (Hebrew Bible). The second in the series is "The Greatest Love Story Ever Told." The last in the series is "The Way Home." All three sections of the series contain Ms Nell Tells audio. Though all three sections are continuous and connected, the combined Bible lessons are arranged in the form of stories; each given a title; each independent of the others and treated separately. Thus, one who might hesitate in undertaking to read through the history of the Bible may open almost at random and find a story.
