PDF Summary:She Reads Truth Bible, by Raechel Myers

The author of She Reads Truth Bible walks through the sacred covenants formed between God and humanity in the Old Testament.

The covenants with Noah, Abraham, and Moses showcase God's protection, promise of a homeland, and laws for holy living amidst human flaws.

The formation of a sacred covenant with Abraham signified the choice of a distinct people and the allocation of a designated land.

The agreement made with Abraham laid the groundwork for the birth of Israel as a nation, which in turn sketched out the divine plan for future events. The author clarifies that the intention revealed in Ephesians 2:4 is to revitalize and invigorate us, even though our wrongdoings have left us devoid of life. This covenant is the basis for understanding the “primeval history” of humankind in the beginning of Genesis, including the stories of Adam and Eve, Noah and the flood, and the Tower of Babel. The ancestral narratives set the stage for the ensuing accounts involving Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph. The writers of the devotional titled "Faith In The Promise Maker" highlight Abraham's willingness to abandon everything he owned, with a steadfast belief that God would fulfill His promises to him.

The opening verses of Genesis, particularly chapters twelve from verse one to three, detail the sacred promise bestowed upon Abraham and his descendants, a promise that encompasses all nations. At the beginning of Romans, Paul clarifies the gospel by demonstrating that Jesus Christ is the realization of the pledge God made to Abraham. Christ is the descendant promised to Abraham (GI 3:16) and we, as the Church, have become the true sons and daughters by adoption into God's family (GI 4:5-7). The book highlights that figures from both genders had their own flaws. They experienced their own unique struggles and uncertainties. The constancy of God's commitment never wavered. Divine guidance played a crucial role in establishing Israel and defining its territorial boundaries, despite certain uncertainties. In this country, God's solemn promise to save His followers was fulfilled through the selfless act of Jesus Christ.

The giving of the Law to Moses marked a sacred covenant that underscored God's holiness alongside the intrinsic deficiencies of the Israelites.

The Bible edition known as She Reads Truth emphasizes that God's intention in providing the Old Testament law to His people was to enable His presence among them, as indicated in Exodus 29:46. The Mosaic Covenant was a symbol of God's steadfast love and provision, underscoring their liberation from slavery and their journey back to the territory that was pledged to them. Before making His dwelling with them, He offered His followers principles for leading a holy life and for the appropriate worship of Him.

The divine purity, as exemplified in the initial chapters of Deuteronomy, reflects the holiness of His edicts, and it is unfortunate that, despite God's preference for unwavering love over ceremonial sacrifice and valuing knowledge of Him above burnt offerings, this is conveyed in Hosea 6:6. In their devotional "Lies, Sin, and Deflated Balloons," the author poignantly illustrates that the blessings we receive from the Divine may not always correspond with the joy we expect. At Mount Sinai's base, the Israelites vowed their allegiance to God. The community made a commitment to adhere to all directives provided by the Divine. While the deal was being formed, it was also being breached. Israel's pursuit of material wealth and their demands for justice exemplified their failure to remain faithful to God.

The divine covenant, which predicts the governance of a forthcoming sovereign and the eternal existence of the holy.

The group he established transcended national boundaries. The Davidic Covenant included a holy promise that a descendant from your family line would sit upon your throne, as stated in Psalms 132:11. God's promise would be realized through His own lineage, rather than stemming from the line of David.

In their devotional "Good News," the author offers insights into the manner in which the writer of Hebrews utilizes Levitical concepts from the Old Testament to depict Jesus as the ultimate fulfillment of the pledges given in the Davidic covenant, as outlined from Hebrews chapter 4, verse 14, to chapter 10, verse 18. Jesus Christ stands as the quintessential offering, achieving what initial statutes and covenants failed to do because of human constraints.
