The story of the Old Testament
"It is still true that the Story of the Old Testament cannot be written with the same definiteness with which the Story of the New can be told. And yet there is room for such a book, as a guide and introduction to the reading and the study of the Old Testament, the great religious values of which are so little appreciated even by intelligent people today. Many problems supposedly quite modern are tellingly dealt with in the Old Testament; indeed, our social reformers are simply saying over again just what the Hebrew prophets said twenty-five hundred years ago. We still need the voice of the prophets. And after all it was they rather than the priests who were the real makers of Israel’s religion." -- Introduction
