Summary: Who's Who in the Bible by David Mandel
Review: David Mandel has written a wonderful, resourceful and detailed encyclopedia about Who is Who in the Bible, covering both the Old and New Testaments. I am writing to enthusiastically endorse the author and recommend this book as an astonishing practical guide for any student of the Bible who wishes to have access to every single possible personality that has played a role in creating the Judeo-Christian civilization.

Rarely in my readings have I found a single writer's work that envelops in one book the history of humanity since the Creation to the times of Jesus Christ.

Summary: In the begining...
Review: When writers allude to Biblical people and stories they assume the reader knows, I get lost. I don't know them. This book is a perfect resource. The biographies are blessedly brief and well-written. It's easy to use and the timeline is particularly helpful. The book hits its mark perfectly.
