Plot

This spectacular volume spans the time from the pyramids to the present day. Here are the stories of the writing of Genesis and Joshua, the times and tribulations of the prophets, the songs and Psalms of David, the story of the wisest man in the world, Solomon, and accounts of the fall of Judea and Israel. There is the triumphant story of Jesus Christ and His apostles, from the twelve to Luke and Paul, perhaps the most influential man in the history of Christianity. But the story doesn't stop there. There is the account of the Gutenberg press that changed Bible making forever, the story of Jerome, Wyckliff, and Tyndale, who suffered for their work. And finally, this story of the Bible ends with the making of what has been called the greatest literary achievement in the world, The Authorized King James Version of 1611.
