Features: Our "Selected Passages from the Old Testament of the Bible" is designed to meet the needs of readers. By referencing several recent new translations of the Bible published in the UK and the US, we have selected exquisite and widely beloved original stories from the vast biblical narratives. Each story is accompanied by a Chinese translation, along with Chinese annotations on key linguistic and cultural points, including explanations of some biblical idioms, allusions, and proper nouns. This is intended to help readers improve their language skills and gain cultural enlightenment while reading the English Bible. During the compilation process, this book received significant assistance from Dr. Edith Davidson, an American biblical scholar; Professor Yu Ke of the History Department at Nankai University; Mr. Kong Zong of the Tianjin Christian Association; and other individuals. This book draws on and references the research findings of some domestic and international biblical scholars, and we extend our sincere gratitude to the original authors. Due to the limited expertise of the compilers, there may be omissions or inaccuracies in the book, and we welcome corrections from experts and readers.
