Description: The Power Bible English Edition has been newly created using expressions and vocabulary from the English Bible commonly used in the United States. It transforms the many rich stories of the thick, often intimidating Bible into comics, allowing children to approach and embrace the countless wisdoms found within Scripture with familiarity and ease. With the lively artwork of cartoonist Kim Shin-jung, creator of Comic Maple Story, the Bible - once felt to be solemn and distant - becomes easy and approachable for children. While faithfully preserving the full content of the Bible, the solemnity typically associated with Scripture is transformed through characters children love - cute, endearing figures who embody wisdom, wit, and cheerfulness. Through fun and heartfelt storytelling, children can freely enjoy and experience the many lessons and truths found in the Bible without feeling burdened. Volume 1: From Creation to the Story of Joseph - Genesis In the midst of deep darkness, God created heaven and earth, and lastly, humankind. Seeing that the human was lonely, God created a companion for him. However, Adam and Eve, the first humans, failed to keep the one rule God had given them and were cast out of the Garden of Eden. Then comes Cain, who committed humanity's first murder, and Abel, who was slain; Noah, the righteous man who built an ark to prepare for the great flood; Abraham, who became the ancestor of the Israelite nation; Isaac, who nearly became a sacrifice; Jacob, who wrestled with God; and Joseph, who rose to become Egypt's prime minister. Meet the wise figures of Genesis through this thrilling comic adaptation. Volume 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 the flourishing Israelite nation and began to persecute them. Moses, raised by an Egyptian princess while escaping this persecution, is called by God to rescue the Israelites from oppression and lead them to the Promised Land. Meet God, who shows very human emotions; Moses, who conveys God's will to a foolish people; and the people who, blinded by immediate desires, continue to sin - all set against the astonishing miracles found in Exodus. Volume 3: The Promised Land - Joshua to 1 Samuel Joshua, who succeeds Moses as leader of the Israelites, faithfully carries out God's word and conquers the Promised Land of Canaan. But the Israelites betray God once again and fall under the rule of other nations. In response, God raises up judges to lead the people and once again reveals His miracles. The story of the Israelites - who obey and spread God's word through figures like the mighty Samson, the prophet Samuel, and Saul, Israel's first king - continues in 'The Promised Land.' Volume 4: David, Israel's Great King - 1 Samuel to 2 Chronicles As Samuel searches for Israel's next king, he discovers that God's heart lies with an ordinary boy named David. David serves Israel with great courage, but his growing popularity among the people makes him a thorn in Saul's side. The rivalry between the jealous Saul and the princes vying for the throne ultimately concludes with David's unification of Israel. As Israel continues to grow, the struggle for the throne persists, but God strengthens Israel further by establishing Solomon as king after David. Volume 5: The Divided Kingdom - 1 Kings to 2 Chronicles The kingdom of Israel, inherited from David, reaches its golden age under Solomon. But even Solomon, known as the wise king, grows arrogant as the nation prospers and fails to fully keep God's commandments. As a result, Israel is eventually divided into the Northern Kingdom of Israel and the Kingdom of Judah. In 'Kings,' the miracles shown through the prophet Elijah and his disciple Elisha, along with the history of prosperity under obedient kings and decline under disobedient ones, unfold in intricate detail. Discover the rise and fall of Israel and Judah in a way that's easier and more entertaining with Power Bible. Volume 6: Destruction and Promise - Ezra to Malachi (Completion of the Old Testament) After the fall of Israel, the people of Judah, who had lived in captivity for many years, are permitted to return home and rebuild the Temple. Despite much interference from surrounding nations, they complete the Second Temple, becoming God's people once again...
