Features: The Bible is a unique book in the history of humanity. Written by different people in different languages across various eras, it remains remarkably cohesive. Despite facing countless doubts and even attacks, its position as a classic has never been shaken. It is not merely a literary, philosophical, or historical book, but rather the source of many literary works, a subject of continuous reference and discussion among philosophers, and it provides an exhaustive account of ancient Jewish history that far surpasses the ancient histories of other nations. The Bible is a great legacy of humanity. However, the solemnity of the original Bible often intimidates readers. Through de Jongh's accessible and engaging writing style, it has been transformed into concise "Bible stories," preserving the spirit of the original while allowing readers to easily enter the world of the Bible. While de Jongh narrates these ancient tales with simplicity, wisdom, and tolerance, he also unfolds the vast human historical process behind the Bible stories. Despite the grandeur and mystery of the Bible, de Jongh makes this book understandable even to the common people. "The Story of the Bible" is truly a work that goes beyond the original Bible by de Jongh. The concise and elegant English, paired with faithful and fluid Chinese translations, along with illustrations drawn by de Jongh himself, will bring you endless joy in reading.
