Solomon, the Queen of Sheba, David, Goliath, the Witch of Endor, Absalom, the Song of Songs - the very names conjure up visions of intrigue, romance and daring. But the "Golden Age" of Israel supplies us with far more than marvelous tales of adventure and romance. Behind the stories lie enduring principles which are as valid today as they were then. Our very language owes many of its figures of speech to that era.

This book is part of a multi-volume biblical survey course. The twenty-nine studies in this volume cover not only the events of the greatest era of Israelite history, but also the "Wisdom Literature" which dates from the time. In addition, the lessons provide practical applications which can help us in our lives today. Among the subjects covered are: peer pressure, loyalty vs. expediency, friendship, leadership, repentance and romantic love.

The author also includes an essay on whether the biblical texts are reliable and historically accurate.

Other volumes in this series explore different periods of Old Testament history. Titles include:

Beginnings and Patriarchs

Exodus and Wanderings

Conquest and Judges

Jonathan Turner grew up in Pakistan where his parents served as church planters. He came to his own faith in Christ through their influence and example.

After returning to the United States, Jonathan served in the church as a bi-vocational youth minister for five years. Since then he has taught numerous youth and adult classes.

In 2006 Jonathan and his wife helped plant a new congregation. In addition to his speaking and teaching, the congregation selected Jonathan to serve as one of its Elders.

Currently, Jonathan is concentrating on writing. So far, most of his books have been non-fiction - study guides and curriculum. However, he is also starting to branch out into short stories and novels.

In addition to writing and teaching, Jonathan is actively involved in carrying on his parents' mission work. Part of that work includes speaking and teaching in the congregations his parents began.

Jonathan and his wife have been happily married for over 30 years. They live in Oregon and have two grown children who are also in the Lord.
