Children's Bible

"Children's Bible" introduces young readers to the most important events from the Holy Scriptures. Its author is Archpriest Alexander Sokolov. In the late 19th century, he poetically and vividly retold biblical stories by writing "Sacred Stories in Simple Narratives for... Reading at Home and in School". Many generations of children have become acquainted with the heroes of the Bible, their fates, famous feats, victories, and defeats. The wise author carefully converses with readers, explaining where good is, and where evil is, who acted honestly, and who committed a treachery. The book has been successfully reissued many times. It includes 118 stories from the Old Testament, 110 stories from the New Testament, and 14 parables told by Jesus Christ. Colorful dynamic illustrations complement the stories and spark interest. The Bible is the primary source of world culture, which should be introduced to children from an early age. Without this knowledge, it is impossible to understand many literary works, artistic plots of famous masters, and musical compositions. The book "Children's Bible" is addressed to a wide audience of readers.
