Check out Dr. Clinton Arnold’s “How We Got the Bible: A Visual Journey.” Arnold is a solid scholar. And the book, concise and easy to read, contains wonderful photos of biblical manuscripts that date back almost 20 centuries.

After even a cursory reading, you will “see” your Bible in a whole new way.  Dr. Arnold does a tremendous job of helping us better understand why the author of Hebrews described the Word of God as “alive and active.”
