What the Bible says about Israel
What comes to mind when you hear the word, Israel? Some would say Israel is God’s special nation. Others have nothing but contempt for Israel and all Jews—accusing them of being violent oppressors, manipulative money grabbers. This week on The Land and the Book, we’ll lay out the basic facts about Israel: its origin, history, status today and future existence—all from a biblical point of view. Charlie Dyer drives it all home in his devotional, The Peace of Jerusalem. So don’t miss The Land and the Book.
