(Full review at SpoiledMilks, 9/6/16)
This study Bibleââ?¬â?¢s one purpose is to increase your understanding of the cultural nuances behind the text of Godââ?¬â?¢s Word so that your study experience, and your knowledge of the realtiesÃ? behindÃ? the ideas in the text, is enriched and expandedÃ? (v). Both Walton and Keener are masters in the cultures of the Old and New Testaments. There are 74 charts and 64 maps throughout theÃ? CBSBÃ? to help bridge the gulf that lies between the world of the Bible and the world of the modern reader. In my original review I looked at the book of Daniel. It is full of cultural insights which help give you a deeper understanding of the text by giving you the ââ?¬Å"mindââ?¬Â? of the original audience.
