From the Wednesday in the Word Blog
New Testament History from Alexander to Titus
When the Old Testament ends, Israel is under control of the Persian empire. When the New Testament begins, Israel is under Roman control. The switch occurred because of Alexander the Great. This historical background helps explain the political situation at the time of the New Testament.
Bible Questions: Who is…
Answers to basic questions about people in the Bible and biblical history.
Who was James?
There are 4 “James” in the New Testament and 2 of them are among the 12.
01 Gospel of Matthew Introduction
Jesus claimed that “all authority in heaven and on earth” has been given to him (Mt 28:18). If that’s true, and I believe it is, then we benefit by learning all we can about Jesus. Matthew wrote this gospel to tell us who Jesus is and what that means for us.

Chronological list of Old Testament prophets: see when they ministered, which kings where in power and who their contemporary prophets were.
January 2021 Reflections
