Description: Power Bible English Edition has been reborn with expressions and wording that match the English Bible commonly used in the United States. Using comic-style storytelling, it breaks down the many rich stories found in the thick, sometimes intimidating Bible, making it easy for children to approach and absorb the wisdom found within its pages. With the lively, dynamic artwork of cartoonist Kim Shin-jung, creator of Comic MapleStory, the Bible—often seen as solemn and serious—becomes easy and approachable for young readers. While staying true to the full content of the Bible, this series transforms its many figures into characters children love, expressed with warmth instead of solemnity. Through their wisdom, wit, and lively spirit, children can enjoy and experience the many lessons and truths of the Bible without pressure, all while having fun. Book 1: From Creation to the Story of Joseph — Genesis In the midst of deep darkness, God created heaven and earth, and finally, humankind. Seeing that the first man was lonely, God created a wife for him. But Adam and Eve, the first humans, failed to keep the one rule God gave them and were cast out of the Garden of Eden. The story continues with Cain, who committed humanity's first murder, and his slain brother Abel; righteous Noah, who built an ark to prepare for the great flood; Abraham, the forefather of the nation of Israel; Isaac, who was nearly offered as a sacrifice; Jacob, who wrestled with God; and Joseph, who rose to become prime minister of Egypt. Meet these wise figures from Genesis through exciting, action-packed comic storytelling. Book 2: Moses, Leader of the Israelites — Exodus to Deuteronomy After the Israelites had settled in Egypt for a long time, a new Pharaoh who did not know Joseph grew fearful of their growing numbers and began to oppress them. Moses, who escaped this persecution and was raised by an Egyptian princess, is called by God to lead the Israelites out of bondage and guide them to the Promised Land. Discover a God who shares emotions much like our own, Moses who delivers God's will to a stubborn people, and the stories of those blinded by immediate desires who fall repeatedly into sin—alongside the astonishing miracles found in the Book of Exodus. Book 3: The Promised Land — Joshua to 1 Samuel Joshua, who succeeds Moses as leader of the Israelites, faithfully carries out God's commands and conquers the Promised Land of Canaan. Yet the Israelites once again turn away from God and fall under the rule of other nations. In response, God raises up judges to lead His people and once again reveals His miraculous power. The story of the Israelites—who obey and proclaim God's word through figures like the mighty Samson, the prophet Samuel, and Saul, Israel's first king—continues throughout 'The Promised Land.' Book 4: David, the Great King of Israel — 1 Samuel to 2 Chronicles As Samuel searches for Israel's next king, he discovers that God's heart is set on an ordinary young shepherd named David. David serves Israel with great courage, but his growing popularity among the people makes him a target of Saul's jealousy. The rivalry between Saul and the princes vying for the throne eventually comes to an end with David's unification of Israel. Even as Israel flourishes, struggles over the throne continue—but God strengthens the nation further by establishing Solomon as David's successor. Book 5: The Divided Kingdom — 1 Kings to 2 Chronicles The kingdom David left behind reaches its golden age under Solomon. Yet even Solomon, known as the king of wisdom, grows arrogant as the nation prospers and fails to fully keep God's commandments. As a result, Israel eventually splits into the Northern Kingdom of Israel and the Kingdom of Judah. In the Book of Kings, the miracles performed by the prophets Elijah and Elisha unfold alongside a complex history of prosperity under obedient kings and decline under disobedient ones. Experience the rise and fall of Israel and Judah in a way that's easier and more entertaining with Power Bible. Book 6: Destruction and Promise — Ezra to Malachi (Completing the Old Testament) After the fall of Israel, the people of Judah, who had lived in exile for many years, are finally permitted to return home and rebuild the Temple. Despite fierce opposition from many neighboring peoples, they complete the Second Temple, becoming God's people once more...
