Scratches on the Rock Face - Lucille L. Turfrey

While not presented as a formal textbook-at times a relaxed, conversational style emerges-Scratches on the Rock Face sets out to describe the major themes of Old Testament Scripture from Genesis to Malachi, scanning its History, Prophecy, and Poetry. In so doing, it reveals how these ancient texts may paint the portrait of 'The Word' who becomes known as Jesus, Redeemer, Lord! The "Picture Parables" provide a unique way of allowing the Scripture to be as up-to-date as today's press releases! Though placed in the nuances of ancient literature, one picture remains as powerful as a thousand words! There are astounding surprises awaiting the reader. Be ready for a shock when discovering the most ancient form of the last letter in the Hebrew alphabet! It is enough to warrant the author taking up the challenge to paint these "Picture Parables". The ANCIENT and the MODERN parables find a happy blending and balance as each subject is presented in sizeable portions. This makes it possible for Scratches on the Rock Face to also be utilised as a handy aid to enrich our knowledge of the Bible.
