Information about the chart

Why Learn The Times of Israel?

By learning the story of Israel, you help yourself to better understand the New Testament. You may not find it fruitful to immerse yourself in a deep and detailed study of books like Leviticus and Ezekiel.

However you do need a clear and comprehensive understanding of Israel’s history and its significance.

The “Times of Israel” Bible study series is about the scriptural history of the twelve tribes of Israel with relevance to Christians.

"For whatever things were written before, were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope" (Romans 15:4).
