What happened during the Intertestamental Period? Most English translations of the Bible have a couple of blank pages between the Old and New Testaments. Maybe they even have a copy of the Apocrypha. In reality, the time between the last book of the Old Testament—Malachi—and the first book in the New Testament—Matthew—was not a brief pause. It actually spanned many, many years. So what happened? That's what Time Between the Testaments is all about. In this book, you'll read about a series of important changes in Jewish life and philosophy, including the emergence of religious groups that would challenge Jesus' message of salvation. As you read this book, you'll gain new knowledge of the world in which your Savior taught, suffered, died, and rose again.
