Apocrypha Readers Edition
$9.95
The Apocrypha (“hidden things”) is that collection of books included in the Greek Septuagint translation of the Hebrew Bible, or in the Latin Vulgate translation. While these books are not part of the Hebrew text that forms the canon for Judaism and Protestant Christianity, they are regarded as canonical by several Christian traditions. Additionally, scholars have pronounced the Apocrypha to be of great value in understanding the times between the Old and New Testaments and the place of Judaism in the Hellenistic and Roman periods.
The deuterocanonical books consist of such genres as wisdom literature, historical fiction, histories, devotional writings, letters, and even apocalyptic material. Included are 1 Esdras; 1 & 2 Maccabees; Tobit; Judith; Esther (Greek); Song of the Three Young Men; Susanna; Bel and the Dragon; Wisdom of Solomon; Wisdom of Jesus, Son of Sirach (Ecclesiasticus); Baruch; Letter of Jeremiah; Prayer of Manasseh; and 2 Esdras.
The Apocrypha is used by the Anglican, Eastern Orthodox, Lutheran, Methodist, and Roman Catholic traditions.
Featuring readable 9-point type, this affordable slim volume is a convenient supplement to Bibles that don’t include the apocryphal texts; and is ideal for classroom use or personal study. It also includes an essay from John R. Kohlenberger III on the importance of the Apocrypha.

Song Of Songs
$9.99The Song of Songs-translated not only from a scholarly or linguistic perspective alone, but from the passion of a heart on fire.
The inspired Song of Songs is a work of art. It is a melody sung from the heart of Jesus Christ for His longing Bride. It is full of symbols, subtle art forms, and nuances that the translator must convey in order to bring it forth adequately to the English reader. Some of the cultural symbols that conveyed rich texture of poetic meaning to the Hebrew speaker nearly 3000 years ago have become almost impossible to leave in its literal form, since the English speaker of today has little or no connection to those symbols. This dynamic-equivalent translation conveys the meaning, not just the words, in a form that many will find refreshing. This meant that much of the hidden meanings locked into the Hebrew text must be disclosed and made explicit.
So be prepared to see yourself in this journey and to hear His lyrics of love sung over you. Invest the time to simply read this through in one sitting. Then go back through slowly and carefully as you ponder each verse and pray through each love-principle revealed in this translation. You may be shocked to read some of the things spoken over your life, almost too good to be true!
