Here I offer you "12 Disciples," as it were, 12 Apostles, to guide you in your journey toward understanding the Old Testament! These are books I own, from my shelves, and this is my own idiosyncratic list and not an objective list. More than anything, these books are associated with core learning and teaching memories I have, and they will occupy a place in my heart forever. So I offer them to you here. Do what you will.
