review 1: SO, SO, SO GOOD! Keep this right by your scriptures when studying the OT, and if you aren't studying the OT, your really should. It is all about CHRIST! And Ferrell shows you how the entire story of Christ is right there in the OT, not just in prophesies, but in types and shadows. I have learned SO much about our Savior and my my personal relationship with him has grown so much stronger as I have come to understand Him and his nature and purpose, and most of all how the atonement works. He shows how every prophet and story is like Christ is so many ways, and then shows how it relates to us TODAY. You'll never think of the Old Testament the same way again, or Christ, for that matter.
review 2: I recommend this book. The author certainly did his research we... morell. It is very factual and the information presented is fascinating. There are some great footnotes, too - as well as appendices. I had to read a chapter at a time because there was so much information to digest. It was also good to think about the things that the author presented. It is not a "page turner". It took me weeks to finish. The entire book is about how the Old Testament reveals types and shadows of the Savior, Jesus Christ. The author also speaks about L.D.S. philosophy and uses examples from the Book of Mormon. If someone who is not a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was interested in reading this book, I would endorse that emphatically. The values of the writings of the prophets in the Old Testament is worth much study and pondering. less
