  • Revelation Explained
    Samuel Whitaker
    The Bible’s most misunderstood book, finally made clear.No book of the Bible is more argued over-or more avoided-than Revelation.

We wa...

  • 1 Samuel Explained
    Samuel Whitaker
    1 Samuel is the hinge on which Israel’s history turns. It tells the story of how a loose confederation of tribes, led by intermittent judges, became a monarchy-and how ambivalent that transformation was. When the people demand a king 'like all the other nations,' God grants the request even as he names it a rejection of his own rule, then works through the very institution to c...

  • Deuteronomy Explained
    Samuel Whitaker
    Deuteronomy is one of the most quoted books in the Bible - and one of the least understood.It’s the book Jesus quotes more than almost any other.

And then, standing at its border, they refused to go in.The resu...

  • Mark Explained
    Samuel Whitaker
    Of the four Gospels, Mark is the most urgent. It opens without genealogy or birth narrative - only a voice in the wilderness and a man emerging from the water - and it never slows down.
