Outlines of Jewish History was written as a compliment to the historical narrative of the Old Testament. It relies on the fruits of archeological and historical research to illustrate the development of the customs, literary, commercial, political, and religious life of the Jews. However, it takes as its starting point the veracity of the Scriptural account and so the history of the Jews is treated as essentially identical with sacred history.
With the Logos edition of Outlines of Jewish History, every word is essentially a link. Scripture references are linked directly to the original language texts and English Bible translations in your library. For every word—in English, Greek, Hebrew, Latin, or any language—you can double-click on that word, and your digital library will automatically search your lexicons for a match. That gives you instant access to a wealth of technical linguistic and etymological data, along with tools for accurate exegesis and interpretation.
