San Pietro fu l'apostolo chiamato da Gesù a essere il primo papa con le parole: "Tu sei Pietro e su questa pietra fonderò la mia Chiesa". Divenne, insieme a san Paolo, fondatore della Roma cristiana stabilizzando la prima comunità di cristiani e testimoniando con il martirio la sua fedeltà a Cristo. Ma Pietro fu prima di tutto un uomo chiamato da Gesù a seguirlo dicendogli "Tu sei Simone il figlio di Giovanni; ti chiamerai Cefa, Pietro". Da semplice pescatore, Pietro divenne pescatore di anime. Fu tra i più intraprendenti e certamente il più impulsivo degli apostoli, sicuramente l'apostolo più vicino a Cristo.

The separation of mankind from God has created a void and a deeper yearning for God and for aeons of time mankind has always tried to fill that void, and thus the enemy exploited these cravings of men and directed it to himself. He perverted man’s desire for fellowship with his creator, and made him bow to idols and things he created with his very hands. It is important to note that our common enemy Satan is a very wicked spirit, and his desire to be worshipped is insatiable.

Il Libro dei Numeri è il quarto libro della Torah ebraica e della Bibbia cristiana. È scritto in ebraico e si crede risalire al Vi-V secolo aC in Giudea, sulla base di precedenti tradizioni orali e scritte. È composto da 36 capitoli descriventi la storia degli Ebrei durante il loro soggiorno nel deserto del Sinai (circa 1200 aC).

Il Cantico dei Cantici è considerato uno dei testi più enigmatici e controversi della Bibbia: è un componimento poetico millenario, scritto probabilmente nel IV secolo a. C.

The ambitious radio series, The Greatest Story Ever Told—based on the book of the same name by Fulton Oursler—came to ABC in the 1940s with a full orchestra and 16-voice chorus.

The stories quite effectively captured the essence of Oursler's book—a beautifully simple dramatization of Christ's life as set down by four apostles.

Concludono l'antico Testamento i libri dei profeti. Il profeta è l'uomo di Dio: animato dal suo Spirito, ha una parola da rivolgere al re o a Israele da parte di JHWH. Egli esprime il giudizio di Dio sul loro agire. Se Israele e il re sono stati infedeli agli impegni dell'alleanza, la parola del profeta rivela il loro peccato e preannunzia il castigo; se invece il popolo ha già scontato la pena, gli annunzia la prossima liberazione.
