Scriptural Reference and Exploration Series, Volume 1: Foundations of Scriptural Understanding serves as a beginning for scriptural studies introduced in succeeding volumes focusing on the foundations and principles for understanding biblical literature. A description of man’s relationships with the universe; covenants, their composition and purpose, with attendant ordinances are considered as a prelude to the dispensation of the Mosaic Law followed by the names, signs, tokens, seasons, festivals, and feasts that are predictive of the promised Messiah. This volume also delves into a fuller description of the Messiah and his missions as described through Israelite patriarchal blessings.

It is written for the lay reader as well as for scholars who desire an additional resource.
