Details
When we know the actual date of a Biblical event, we're reminded that Scripture isn't a vague recording but contains real accounts that coincide with other events in history. Genealogy is another important part of the Bible; it informs us of the connections of the people we read about. A strong understanding of the names within the genealogy—particularly those listed in the Old Testament—reveals the bigger picture of God's people and their world. In the book Unexpected Treasures, the authors take you on a fascinating journey into a world not often visited by the average Bible reader. After finishing this book, you will better understand the details of Scripture and gain a greater appreciation for these "unexpected treasures".
The Bible Discovery series provides background resources to help you read and understand the text of Scripture. The insights in these books remove the speed bumps on your road to a greater understanding of God's Word.

Names, Dates & Geneology Review by AnnetteAdrian
This is a collaboration of James Becker & Joshua Becker. The way this book is written and put together
I hope these two have written other books! If you are into history, understanding the BC/AD timeline this book is for you.
It will help you understand how we figured out the time line and verified it by other instances that took place.
Love the book, great reference piece, just understanding the time line is pretty important for history buffs.
Get this one. Use it. Study it. Get others it study it! Really great book! (Posted on 11/20/2017)
