Title: Suggest a book?
Post by: Amrhrasach on September 23, 2009, 12:31:16 PM

I am interested in finding a book that goes into more explicit detail of the characters of the bible, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Isaiah, Paul, Luke, etc.  Their travels, education, families, customs, anything and everything known about them.   The bible doesn't go into a lot of detail about some.

Anyone know of a title and where such a book can be purchased?

"The Bible as History" http://www.amazon.com/Bible-as-History-Werner-Keller/dp/9650060162/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1253734801&sr=1-2

I might also suggest looking up on Amazon "Bible" and "History" as topics &  "Bible" and "Archaeology"

Wikipedia is very informative, and is free!
