About
From Genesis to Revelation Without the Jargon.
You are reading your Bible and you hit a word you have seen a hundred times without ever pinning it down. You do not want a lecture from a seminary. You want to know what the word means, where it shows up, and why it matters on the page in front of you.
This volume covers 440 essential Scripture words, A to Z, grouped into 10 sections: In the Beginning, The Family of Promise, Egypt, Exodus and the Law, Land, Judges and Kings, Prophets, Exile and Return, The Gospels: Good News Arrives, The Early Church Begins, Letters to Young Churches, Everyday Life in Bible Times, How It All Ends.
Every entry gives you the same things in the same order, so you always know where to look: how to say the word out loud, where it comes from in Hebrew or Greek, what it plainly means, a short "Good to know" background note, three or four key passages, a kitchen-table moment that shows the word at work in ordinary life, a verse to sit with, and cross-references to related words.
Written for ordinary readers, in plain English, with the warmth of a friend explaining something across the table rather than a reference book lecturing from a shelf. Also inside: a 30-day reading walk for taking the words a little at a time.
