Great Reads


In the midst of the hustle and bustle I still find some time to read some good books I have acquired lately. Apart from savoring the book of Leviticus, I have found a gem in 'Jewish Literacy' by Rabbi Joseph Telushkin. It is a mine of information on the different books of the Tanach, one to have on your bookshelf! In addition, I have started 'The miracle of the Scarlet Thread' by Richard Booker which looks into the power of the blood of Jesus Christ through the whole Bible, Old and New Testament alike. It links everything. It shows how the old Testament was a shadow of the things to come as far as Jesus Christ, His sacrifice and the forgiveness of our sins through that sacrifice are concerned. Hopefully it will shed some new light on the subject. The reviews were pretty good and thought I'd give it a try.
Alright, enough posting - back to my books!

How are the books so far? As you know from our recent conversation I haven't finished mine...I have one more day to finish it before the month is over. {I made a goal to read one book a month} So like you I better get back to reading, lol. = )

The books are great. I am learning so much - esp. with reading 'Jewish Literacy'. Again, I highly recommend it.
I like your goal of one book a month. I'm more a butterfly kind of reader; I'll start a few books at a time, enjoy them for a while, put them away and go back to them a few months later. More often than not, I don't finish them :)
