Publisher's Synopsis
Part of NLT Immerse: The Reading Bible, Complete Set, the Winner of the 2022 Christian Book Award for Bible of the Year!
Chronicles is the sixth and final installment of Immerse: The Bible Reading Experience program. Chronicles contains the remaining First Testament Books: Chronicles―Ezra―Nehemiah, Esther, and Daniel. These works were all written after the Jewish people fell under the control of foreign empires and were scattered among the nations. They remind God's chastened people of their identity and calling to faithfully represent God to the nations and that there is still hope for the struggling dynasty of David.
Chronicles delivers Scripture to the reader as it was originally created: without chapter or verse breaks. While references are made available for ease of finding specific Scripture references, those references do not appear within the actual text of Scripture. This makes for uninterrupted reading of God's Word. Created with the look and feel of a paperback book, and written using the Holy Bible, New Living Translation, the most readable translation available, Chronicles enables you to easily read and understand the Bible.
Ideal for a fresh approach to Bible study or the spiritual practice of Lectio Divina, this collection of six Old Testament books features:
- Comfortable single-column text
- No chapter or verse markings
- Book introductions with historical and biblical context
- Natural literary breaks
- A logical book order grouped chronologically or by similar ancient audiences
