Summary: "Encountering the Old Testament"
This is one fantastic text book. Very well written. Easy and understandable reading. AND the interactive CD Rom is very useful in memorizing the information and facts - cannot say enough about this!! Definitely a top notch text that makes learning easy and interesting! I am going to definitely purchase the text by this company on the New Testament as well. Looks very similar.

Summary: "The 'Right Product' would have been nice."
I ordered "Encountering the Old Testament"; I received "Encountering the New Testament". Book Fool (Yes, that's the company's name) sent the wrong book. When I requested the right book they said sorry, out-of-stock. But I could send back the book... I will not do business with Book Fool again, not becasue they were that awfully bad, but because there is so many other book sellers with which to work. They made the wrong kind of lasting impression.

Even though the book was used, it looked new. I have ordered all of my textbooks from Amazon and have not been disappointed!
