This book deals directly with this timeless question that affects most human beings, especially in modern times.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eContrary to being something to be dreaded, the Bible affirms the positive value of aging. Surprisingly, the biblical perspective goes far beyond the simple affirmation that gray hair brings wisdom. Its viewpoint is more complex and nuanced, with an amazing number of biblical stories that touch the theme of old age and all that comes with it.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e As the life span increases, a biblical reflection on aging is needed and welcomed.
