THE FIRST BOOK OF ISRAEL

An achievement in compression of thousands of thousands of years as the vast panorama of Israelite history backgrounds the contemporary story of a nation reassembled, reborn in the ""promised land"" of their forebears. If at times it seems too glib, oversimplified, the essence is there- the sense of way of life, of the new pattern rooted in the old, of the immense vitality of the miracle of our times.
