The Law and Practice of the Copyright, Registration and Provisional Registration of Designs,... Book

There are countless texts that provide overviews of the Old Testament. Many of these organize their chapters by book of the Bible. In this survey book, Schultz actually examines the OT from a perspective of history and walks through the OT by historical period: Creation, the patriarchal age, the early period of nationhood, the united and divided monarchy, etc. In addition, as Schultz explains the meaning and purpose of each book of Scripture, he ties themes and events to the historical events of that period; it’s very effective. The summaries of the books themselves provide little information about the writing of each book (no date of writing, no possible authors, etc), and focus mainly on the message of the book, so it’s only one aspect of what is needed in a good survey text. But overall, it’s readable and informative. Recommended for students and readers interested in understanding the OT.
