Listen to this recording of the Book of Ruth, taken from the Revised Geneva Translation, a 21st-century update of the Geneva Bible. It eliminates archaic, and potentially distracting, 16th-century words and phrases, while at the same time maintaining the strict attention to the original intent for which this version of The Holy Bible has always been known. In addition, the RGT strives to preserve the textual cadence and poetry that is so essential to Elizabethan literature.

Written by Gad, seer of King David, about 1000 BC, this book of prophecy is recommended reading by the Bible, but was never included in the Canon.

We have a prophecy that outlines the end times beginning with the Rapture, the seven-year tribulation and the establishment of Christ’s millennial reign.

"The role of women in the Bible has been a universal source of discussion for generations. The Abrahamic faiths which emerged from ancient biblical history have turned to the scriptures for advice and role models for women's behaviors and purpose. In fact, the scriptures have recorded guidelines defining these things. Viewed through the lens of culture, some writers have attempted to interpret significance of the scripture lessons and stories about women in relationship to current events. For some, the ancient stories no longer reflect the woman of today. Feminist viewpoints have explored the value of supposed freedoms, and certainly dealt headfirst with issues previously unspoken. Women have indeed suffered through cultural expectations which have produced mental, emotional, physical and sexual abuse, slavery, marginalization, and a host of social ills. But, the truth is that the scriptures are the source for understanding how God would have his womanly creation live life to the fullest."

This book was created to offer the listener just I & II Maccabees out of the Apocrypha as it is worthy of such focused separation and study.
