In Judges, national sin and corruption portray a dark picture. The story of Ruth the Moabitess and her loyalty and devotion to Naomi, her Hebrew mother-in-law, presents the reader with a picture of the nobler side of Hebrew life in the days of the judges. <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=index&Css=default&Index=indexed&File=BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt'>BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt</a> Found: <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=bible&X=x&T=&Css=default&Version=kjv&Book=VSEARCH&Chapter=1Samuel:1 ' target=''>kjv@1Samuel:1 </a><SUMMARY>@ 1SAMUEL - These books were named after Samuel, not only because he is the principal figure in the first part, but also because he anointed the two other principal characters, Saul and David. Originally a single book which was divided when translated into Greek, the books of Samuel cover a period of time in Israel’s history from the birth of Samuel to the close of the reign of David. First Samuel presents the transition from Israel’s judges to the monarchy. Second Samuel deals almost exclusively with the history of David and presents a vivid picture of the theocratic monarchy in which the king represents God’s rule over the people. <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=index&Css=default&Index=indexed&File=BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt'>BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt</a> Found: <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=bible&X=x&T=&Css=default&Version=kjv&Book=VSEARCH&Chapter=2Samuel:1 ' target=''>kjv@2Samuel:1 </a><SUMMARY>@ 2SAMUEL - These books were named after Samuel, not only because he is the principal figure in the first part, but also because he anointed the two other principal characters, Saul and David.

The apostasy of his own people was enough to break Hosea’s heart, but he also bore a heavy cross in his own life - his wife had proved unfaithful. In this bitter experience Hosea came to fathom God’s love for his erring children and pleads with his people to repent and avail themselves of God’s divine compassion and a love that will not let Israel go. <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=index&Css=default&Index=indexed&File=BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt'>BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt</a> Found: <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=bible&X=x&T=&Css=default&Version=kjv&Book=VSEARCH&Chapter=Haggai:1 ' target=''>kjv@Haggai:1 </a><SUMMARY>@ HAGGAI - This book, the first among the writings of the post-Exilic prophets, consists of four prophecies delivered within the space of 4 months, some 15 years after the return of the first exiles to Jerusalem. Work on the second Temple has begun shortly after the exiles’ arrival, but had been delayed for almost two decades. Haggai comes forward with a series of timely and vigorous messages challenging the people to respond wholeheartedly to a noble task - rebuilding the House of God. <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=index&Css=default&Index=indexed&File=BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt'>BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt</a> Found: <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=bible&X=x&T=&Css=default&Version=kjv&Book=VSEARCH&Chapter=Mark:1 ' target=''>kjv@Mark:1 </a><SUMMARY>@ MARK - The Gospel of Mark, the shortest, is also held by most to be the first of the Gospels to be written. A tradition dating from the 2nd century ascribes this book to John Mark, a companion of Peter and also of Paul and Barnabas in their missionary endeavors. The preaching of Peter may well have been the source of most of Mark’s material. Mark accounts for the ministry of Jesus from His Baptism to His Ascension. Most commentaries agree that Mark’s purpose was neither biographical nor historical, but theological: to present Jesus as the Christ, the mighty worker rather than great teacher. Hence, Mark makes fewer references to the Parables and discourses, but meticulously records each of Jesus’ "mighty works" as evidence of His divine power. Mark contains 20 specific miracles and alludes to others. Bible scholars quite generally agree that Mark wrote his Gospel in Rome for the gentiles. <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=index&Css=default&Index=indexed&File=BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt'>BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt</a> Found: <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=bible&X=x&T=&Css=default&Version=kjv&Book=VSEARCH&Chapter=John:1 ' target=''>kjv@John:1 </a><SUMMARY>@ JOHN - The Gospel of John endeavors to explain the mystery of the Person of Christ by the use of the term "logos" (word) and was written to confirm Christians in the belief that Jesus was the Christ, the Son of God. Its purpose is evangelical and is so stated in <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=bible&X=x&T=&Css=default&X=x&T=&Version=kjv&Book=VSEARCH&Chapter=John:20:31' target=''> kjv@John:20:31</a>. John not only records events as do the other Gospels but also uniquely interprets the events by giving them spiritual meaning. The author makes significant use of such words as light, water, life, love, and bread. Traditionally the author of this Gospel is considered to have been John, the Beloved Disciple. <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=index&Css=default&Index=indexed&File=BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt'>BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt</a> Found: <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=bible&X=x&T=&Css=default&Version=kjv&Book=VSEARCH&Chapter=Romans:1 ' target=''>kjv@Romans:1 </a><SUMMARY>@ ROMANS - This letter, the first in canonical order, but not the first of Paul’s Epistles, is the longest and the most influential of all the Apostle’s writings. Writing to Christians at Rome whom he hoped soon to visit, Paul presents to them his mature convictions concerning the Christian faith: the universality of sin; the impotence of the law as a means of salvation; the nature of God’s saving act in Christ, and its appropriation by faith. The letter closes with spiritual advice and some personal remarks. <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=index&Css=default&Index=indexed&File=BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt'>BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt</a> Found: <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=bible&X=x&T=&Css=default&Version=kjv&Book=VSEARCH&Chapter=1Thessalonians:1 ' target=''>kjv@1Thessalonians:1 </a><SUMMARY>@ 1THESSALONIANS - These letters constitute what is probably the earliest writing of the Apostle Paul. There were written in A.D. 51-52, soon after the founding of the Thessalonian church, and give Paul’s answer, to some basic problems disturbing the Christians of Thessalonica. The major contributions are eschatological, investigating especially the events preceding and accompanying the return of Christ. The concern of Paul for his followers is apparent throughout. <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=index&Css=default&Index=indexed&File=BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt'>BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt</a> Found: <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=bible&X=x&T=&Css=default&Version=kjv&Book=VSEARCH&Chapter=2Thessalonians:1 ' target=''>kjv@2Thessalonians:1 </a><SUMMARY>@ 2THESSALONIANS - These letters constitute what is probably the earliest writing of the Apostle Paul.

Paul entreats Philemon, the master of Onesimus, a runaway slave, to receive him back as a brother in Christ ( <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=bible&X=x&T=&Css=default&X=x&T=&Version=kjv&Book=VSEARCH&Chapter=Philemon:1:16-17' target=''> kjv@Philemon:1:16-17</a> ). This very personal letter reveals not only the concern of the Apostle for a converted slave but also a practical demonstration of brotherhood in Christ, "where there is neither bond (slave) nor free".

The Epistle portrays Jesus, who performed the perfect sacrifice for the sins of the world, as the great High Priest of the line of Melchizedek ( Genesis:14 ). The Bible’s only definition of faith occurs in this Epistle (Chap. Hebrews:11 ) and is followed by the "great line of splendor" of the men of faith. <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=index&Css=default&Index=indexed&File=BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt'>BIBLEBOOKSUMMARY.txt</a> Found: <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=bible&X=x&T=&Css=default&Version=kjv&Book=VSEARCH&Chapter=James:1 ' target=''>kjv@James:1 </a><SUMMARY>@ JAMES - The author of this letter introduces himself as "James, a servant of God and the Lord Jesus Christ". Four men in the New Testament bore this name but the writer of this Epistle is usually identified with James who was the leader of the church in Jerusalem. The letter is addressed to the "the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad", and is the most Jewish in style and form of any of the New Testament books. It is not a treatise on Christian theology but rather a practical letter dealing with Christian ethics. James insists that works, not words, are the mark of a disciple. <a href='pbiblx-seeker.cgi?Mode=index&Css=default&Index=indexed&File=DAILYLIGHT.txt'>DAILYLIGHT.txt</a> Found: JANUARY26 AM <DAILYLIGHT>@ Let us go forth unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
