From the Foreword: It is so easy for us to forget that the people of Biblical times were human beings. Their humanity was as real as ours. The events which grasped their lives generated the same doubts and affirmations, fears and hopes, joys and sadnesses which claim us. In The 'Word' Made Fresh, Andrew Edington seeks to reveal our identification with their humanity, the beautiful humanity with which the One, true and living God has been pleased to deal through the ages. These pages do not give us a word by word translation, but rather selected scriptural accounts using today's images as vehicles for the timeless truth. Volume 1 (this book) of The 'Word' Made Fresh moves through the history of Israel. Further volumes will introduce us anew to the prophets and the New Testament. In his twenty-one year investment in the lives of young people while President of Schreiner Junior College and High School, one of Dr. Edington's central purposes was the development of interest in the Holy Scriptures on the part of students. His concern continues to be the awakening of interest in the "words" which communicate the Word of God, and which may lead to commitment to Him who is the living Word of Life." by Sam M.
