"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters..." The Book of Psalms is one of the Bible's most cherished and widely read books. With 150 poems, songs, and prayers, it expresses the full range of human emotions, from joy and praise to sorrow and lament. Once attributed solely to the biblical King David, it is now believed to reflect Israel's entire history from the period of the Exodus (13th century BCE) to the postexilic restoration (after 600 BCE). The message of the Psalms remains relevant, offering followers of Judaism and Christianity comfort, spiritual guidance, and hope amid their own challenges and struggles. This edition of the Psalms, reprinted complete and unabridged from the Old Testament of the King James Bible, is designed to be a daily devotional with contemplation questions included. Featuring beautiful images and stirring verses, each entry offers a rich source of wisdom and uplifting insight that can motivate the growth of one's faith and lead to a more joyful and fulfilling life.

The Book of Numbers is the fourth book of the Hebrew Bible, and the fourth of five books of the Jewish Torah.

The name of the book comes from the two censuses taken of the Israelites.

The Book of Proverbs, "Proverbs (of Solomon)") is the second book of the third section (called Writings) of the Hebrew Bible and a book of the Christian Old Testament. When translated into Greek and Latin, the title took on different forms: in the Greek Septuagint (LXX) it became Paroimiai ("Proverbs"); in the Latin Vulgate the title was Proverbia, from which the English name is derived. Proverbs is not merely an anthology but a "collection of collections" relating to a pattern of life which lasted for more than a millennium. It is an example of the Biblical wisdom tradition, and raises questions of values, moral behavior, the meaning of human life, and right conduct. The repeated theme is that "the fear of God (meaning submission to the will of God) is the beginning of wisdom". Wisdom is praised for her role in creation; God acquired her before all else, and through her he gave order to chaos; and since humans have life and prosperity by conforming to the order of creation, seeking wisdom is the essence and goal of the religious life.

The Book of Genesis is the first book of the Hebrew Bible (the Tanakh) and the Christian Old Testament. The basic narrative expresses the central theme: God creates the world (along with creating the first man and woman) and appoints man as his regent, but man proves disobedient and God destroys his world through the Flood. The new post-Flood world is equally corrupt, but God does not destroy it, instead calling one man, Abraham, to be the seed of its salvation. At God's command Abraham descends from his home into the land of Canaan, given to him by God, where he dwells as a sojourner, as does his son Isaac and his grandson Jacob. Jacob's name is changed to Israel, and through the agency of his son Joseph, the children of Israel descend into Egypt, 70 people in all with their households, and God promises them a future of greatness. Genesis ends with Israel in Egypt, ready for the coming of Moses and the Exodus. The narrative is punctuated by a series of covenants with God, successively narrowing in scope from all mankind (the covenant with Noah) to a special relationship with one people alone (Abraham and his descendants through Isaac and Jacob).

The Book of Proverbs from the King James Bible. Book of Proverbs, King James Bible by Scourby Bible Media; narrated by Alexander Scourby."Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: For the time is at hand." (Rev: 1-3)The books of the Bible were written at different times by different authors over a period of approximately 1,500 years from around 1400 BC through 90 AD. The Old Testament was written in Biblical Hebrew excluding the books written during "the Chaldean captivity" such as Daniel and Ezra which were written in "Biblical Aramaic" during the "Chaldean captivity". Many of the books of the Old Testament bear the names of the prophets who authored them. Moses compiled the earlier parts of Genesis and directly authored the remaining portion. David wrote much of Psalms while Solomon wrote the books of The Song of Solomon and Ecclesiastes. The Books of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel bear the names of the Prophets who wrote them. The Old Testament Books of the minor prophets bear the author s name as well. The four New Testament Gospels were pinned by Matthew, Mark, Luke, John. The Apostle Paul pinned authorship to 13 of the 27 Books of the New Testament. The authorship of the remaining 10 Books of the New Testament belong to the disciples of Jesus Christ.The Hebrew Bible was then translated into Greek and finally into English. John Wycliffe first translated the entire Bible (both Old and New Testaments) into English in 13th century England. William Tyndale translated the Bible into English in 15 century England. The King James translators used the Tyndale and Wycliffe translations in the Publishing of the King James Bible in 1611, commonly referred to as "The Holy Bible".Alexander Scourby was the first to record the King James Bible on audio in the early 1950s. Since then millions have been sold the World over. Although many have recorded the Bible over the years, no one could ever match Scourby s unparalleled and majestic reading. The combination of Alexander Scourby reading the King James Bible is an incomparable hearing experience.
