The Psalms were set to the accompaniment of stringed instruments and served as the temple hymbook and devotional guide for the Jewish people..

Job is perhaps the earliest book of the Bible. et in the period of the patriarchs (Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph), it tells the story of a man who loses everything-his wealth,his family, his health-and wrestles with the question, Why? The book begins with a heavenly debate between God and Satan, moves hrough three cycles of earthly debates between Job and his friends, and concludes with a dramatic "divine diagnosis" of Job's problem. In the end, Job acknowledges the sovereignty of God in his life and receives back more than he had before his trials. Iyyob is the Hebrew title for this book, and the name has two possible meanings. If derived from the Hebrew word for "Persecution", it means "Persecuted One", It is more likely that it comes from the Arabic word meaning "To Come Back" or "Repent", If so, it may be defined "Repentant One". Both meanings apply to the book. The Greek title is Job, and the Latin title is Iob.

God's hand of providence and protection on behalf of His people is evident throughout the Book of Esther, though His name does appear once. Haman's plot brings grave danger to the Jews and is countered by the courage of beautiful Esther and the counsel of her wise cousin Mordecai, resulting in a great deliverance. The feast of Purim becomes an annual reminder of His God's faithfulness on behalf of His people.

Nehemiah, contemporary of Ezra and cupbearer to the king in the Persian palace, leads the third and last return to Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile. His concern for the welfare of Jerusalem and its inhabitants prompts him to take bold action. Granted permission to return to his home land, Nehemiah challenges his countrymen to arise and rebuild the shattered wall of Jerusalem. In spite of opposition from without and abuse from within , the task is completed in only fifty-two days, a feat even the enemies of Isreal must attribute to God's enabling. By Contrast, the task of reviving and reforming the people of God within the rebuilt wall demands years of Nehemiah's godly life and leadership. The Hebrew for Nehemiah is Nehemyah, "Comfort of Yahweh". The book is named after its cheif character whose name appears in the opening verse. The combined book of Ezra-Nehemiah is given the Greek title Esdras Deuteron, "Second Esdras" in the Septuagint, a third-century B.C. Greek language translation of the Hebrew Old Testament. The Latin title of Nehemiah is Liber Secundus Esdra," Seond Book of Ezra"(Ezra was the first). At this point, it is considered a separate book from Ezra, and is later called Liber Nehemiae, "Book of Nehemiah".

Ezra continues the Old Testament narrative of Seco to leave nd Chronicles by showing how God fulfills His promise to return His people, to the Land of Promise after seventy years of exile. Israel's "second exodus", this one from Babylon, is less impressive than the return from Egypt because only a remnant chooses to leave Babylon. Ezra relates the story of two returns from Babylon-the first led by Zerubbabel to rebuild the temple(1-6), and the second under the leadership of Ezra to rebuild the spiritual condition of the people (7-10). Sandwiched between these two accounts is a gap of nearly six decades, during which Esther lives and rules as queen in Persia. Ezra is the Aramaic form of the Hebrew word ezer, " help", and perhaps means "Yahweh helps", Ezra and Nehemiah were originally bound together as one book becauseChronicles, Ezra, and Nehemiah were viewed as one continuous history.

First Estras is the name of the apocryphal book of Esdras. The Latin title is Liber Primus Esdrae, "First Book of Ezra".

The Books of First and Second Chronicles cover the same period of Jewish history described in Second Samuel through Second Kings, but the perspective is different. These books are no mere repetition of the same material, but rather form a divine editotial on the history of God's people. While Second Samuel and First and Second Kings give a political historyof Israeland Judah, First and Second Chronicles present a religious history of the Davidic dynasty of Judah. The former are written from a prophetic and moral viewpoint, and the latter from a priestly and spiritual perspective. The Book of First Chronicles begins with the royal line of David, and then traces the spritual significance of David's rrighteous reign. and

The books of First and Second Chronicles were originally one continuous work in the Hebrew. The title was Dibere Hayyamim, meaning " The Words [accounts, events] of the Days." The equivalent meaning today would be "The Events of the Times". Chronicles was divided into two parts in the third-century B.C. Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible (the Septuagint). At that time it was given the name Paraleipomenon, " Of Things Omitted", referring to the things omitted from Samuel and Kings. Some copies add the phrase, Basileon Iouda, "Concerning the Kings of Judah". The first book of Chronicles was called Paraleipomenon Primus, " The First Book of Things Omitted". The name " Chronicles" comes from Jerome in his Latin Vulgate Bible (A.D.385-405): Chronicorum Liber. He meant his title in the sense of the " Chronicles of the Whole of Sacred History."

The Book of Second Kings continues the drama begun in First Kings, the tragic history of two nations on a collision course with captivity. The author systematically traces the reigning monarchs of Israel and Judah, first by carrying one nation's history forward, then retracing the same period for other nation. Nineteen consecutive evil kings rule in Israel, leading to the captivity by Assyria. The picture is somewhat brighter in Judah, where godly kings occasionally emerge to reform the evils their predecessors. In the end, however, sin outweighs righteousness and Judah is marched off to Babylon.

The first half of First Kings traces the life of Soloman. Under his leadership Israel rises to the peak of her size and glory. Solomon's great accomplishments, including the unsurpassed splendor of the templewhich he constructs in Jerusalem, bring him worldwide fame and respect. However, Solomon's zeal for God diminishes in his later years, as pagan wives turn his heart away from worship in the temple of God. As a result, the king with the divided heart leaves behind a divided kingdom. For the next century, the Book of First Kings traces the twin histories of two sets of kings and two nations of disobedient people who are growing indifferent to God's prophets and precepts. Like the two books of Samuel, the two books of Kings were originally one in the Hebrew Bible. The original title was Melechim, "Kings", taken from the first word in 1:1, Vehamelech, " "Now king". The Septuagint artificially divided the book of Kings in the middle of the story of Ahaziah into two books. It called the books of Samuel " First and Second Kingdoms" and the books of Kings "Third and Fourth Kingdoms". The Septuagint may have divided Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles into two books each because the Greek required a greater amount of scroll space than did the Hebrew. The Latin title for these books is Liber Regum Tertius et Quartus, " Third and Fourth Books of Kings".

As a result, the king with the divided heart leaves behind a divided kingdom. For the next century, the Book of First Kings traces the twin histories of two sets of kings and two nations of disobedient people who are growing indifferent to God's prophets and precepts. Like the two books of Samuel, the two books of Kings were originally one in the Hebrew Bible. The original title was Melechim, "Kings", taken from the first word in 1:1, Vehamelech, " "Now king". The Septuagint artificially divided the book of Kings in the middle of the story of Ahaziah into two books. It called the books of Samuel " First and Second Kingdoms" and the books of Kings "Third and Fourth Kingdoms". The Septuagint may have divided Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles into two books each because the Greek required a greater amount of scroll space than did the Hebrew. The Latin title for these books is Liber Regum Tertius et Quartus, " Third and Fourth Books of Kings".

1and 2 Samuel are mostly concerned with the reigns of King Saul and King David. The date of David's accession to the throne is approximately 1000B.., that the books of 1 and 2Samuel cover the period of time from about 1050 B.C. to 960 B.C., Saul and David each reigning fo forty years. Taken in conjunction, these two books demonstrate the contrast between Saul and David. Saul began well and piously, and in some respects was an able ruler, keeping the enemy Philistines at bay for most of his reign. But he ended poorly, having forsaken the path of strict obedience to God's commands, and he ende his life in suicide. David, always a man of battle, and sometimes lapsing temporarily from obedience to God, nonetheless repented of his sins and began , with God's blessing, a golden age of Israelite glory. God selected David's dynasty to continue on the throne of Israel forever, culminating eventually in the reign of Jesus Christ.

This is a short story recording an incident during the period of the Judges. An Israelite family moved from Judah to the land of Moab during a famine. The husband died, the two sons married foreign women, both sons died, the mother (Naomi) returned to her home town of Bethlehem. One of her daughters-in-law (Ruth) accompanied Naomi, adopting Isrealite as her own. Ruth married again, this time to Boaz, a wealthy Israelite, and became the great-grandmother of King David. Besides showing intimate details of life in those times, the book of Ruth demonstrates how a foreigner .was absorbed into Israelite life and history, thus prefiguring the Christian gospel by which Gentiles are absorbed into God's church. Ruth is a Gentile (Moabitess) in the ancestry of Jesus.

Covering a period of some hundreds of years-from the settlement in Canaan to the establishment of the monarchy under Saul-the book of Judges describes a recurrent pattern among the various Israelite tribes. At first the people were faithful to the Lord, but they gradually fell into idolatry; then God punished them through harsh enemies until they repented and called again on the Lord for rescue; and then God raised up some person with authority and charsma (called a judge) to resist and overcome their enemies. The twelve judges described in this book served one or more tribes of Israel in this capacity. Some of them may have served at the same time. Among these judges were such persons as Ehud, Deborah, Gideon, Jephthah and Samson. The pattern of the book of Judges- falling away, punishment, deliverance- is very useful in understanding God's way.

At first the people were faithful to the Lord, but they gradually fell into idolatry; then God punished them through harsh enemies until they repented and called again on the Lord for rescue; and then God raised up some person with authority and charsma (called a judge) to resist and overcome their enemies. The twelve judges described in this book served one or more tribes of Israel in this capacity. Some of them may have served at the same time. Among these judges were such persons as Ehud, Deborah, Gideon, Jephthah and Samson. The pattern of the book of Judges- falling away, punishment, deliverance- is very useful in understanding God's way.

The book of Joshua records the efforts of the Israelites to force their way into the land of Canaan and to find places to settle down among the people who were already living there. Joshua, the Israelite general who succeeded Moses as leader of Israel, was the director of these campaigns. He led them in the battle against kings who opposed their entry into Canaan, and he supervised the allocation of territory in which to settle. At the end of the book, he led the assembled tribes in a solemn ratification of God's covenant. Isrrael's military conquest of Canaan symbolizes the spiritual warfare of Christians against godlessness, and their settlement among the remaining Canaanite people symbolizes the hazards that Christians face in the midst of a hostile world.

n this Book the Israelites were camped just east of the Jordan River making preparations for crossing into Canaan. These Israelites were a new generation, most of whom were not alive at the time of the exodus and the encampment at Sinai. So Moses, by means of the speeches recorded here, provided them with a comprehensive review of everything that happened during the forty years in the wilderness.

Moses stressted two things: Israel's unfaithfulness and God's faithfulness. He strongly urged the new generation of Isrealites not to repeat the mistakes and sins of the past and to keep diligently all the laws of God. It is fairly common for modern scholars to insist that the book of Deuteronomy (which means "second law") was written much later than the time of Moses., But aside from the account of Moses' death at the end, there is no compelling reason why Moses himself could not have written it.
This Unusual name comes from the counting (census) of the Israelites, once at Mount Sinai (1:2), and a second time after the forty-years' travel in the wilderness (26:2). The book of Numbers is a travel diary written by Moses, telling the story of the Israelites' departure from Mount Sinai after the two-year encampment. It records their adventures until finally they arrived at the eastern side of the Jordan River before entering the Promised Land of Canaan, The book demonstrates how difficult it was for God's covenant people to retain faith and trust in God in the face of continuing troubles.

The book of Leviticus, accordingly, is a manual or priests, detailing the religious rules and procedures which the priests had to observe and enforce for the covenant nation of Israel. Its historical setting is the two years Israel spent encamped at Mount Sinai; it contains no further account of Israel's journeys from Egypt to canaan. The fact that Moses,the author of Leviticus, devoted an entire book to priestly matters shows the importance that religious observances were to have ever afterwards for the Isrealites. Christians, under the terms of Christ's new covenant, do not regard these Levitical regulations as binding, but they do obey the same God, not in the letter of the law but in the spirit of Christ. The Name of this book gives a clue to its contents: Leviticus means "things pertaining to Levi". Levi was the third son of Jacob, and at Mount Sinai his descendants(through Aaron, Exodus 28:1) were appointed priests to be in charge of the tabernacle and the religious life of Israel.

Christians, under the terms of Christ's new covenant, do not regard these Levitical regulations as binding, but they do obey the same God, not in the letter of the law but in the spirit of Christ. The Name of this book gives a clue to its contents: Leviticus means "things pertaining to Levi". Levi was the third son of Jacob, and at Mount Sinai his descendants(through Aaron, Exodus 28:1) were appointed priests to be in charge of the tabernacle and the religious life of Israel.
