| The dream of Sam Houston and those who fought so bravely at the Alamo and Battle of San Jacinto has come to fruition as Texas finally becomes one of the United States. Along with the establishment of Texas as a new state, The Eyes of Texas chronicles the monumental struggle of the Hardin and Taliferro families as they expand the Yellow Rose Ranch-all the while protecting their livelihood from the invading Mexican bandits from the south, and the brutal Comanche raiding parties from the north. In the midst of horrifying attacks, kidnapping and new-found love, the Taliferros and Hardins learn to trust God through hardships and victory. The Eyes of Texas is the perfect ending to the Texas saga told in Deep in the Heart and The Yellow Rose. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

| The Tyndale Old Testamet Commentary series is an evangelical commentary series that aims to be accessible to all readers.

| Most Bible commentaries take us on a one-way trip from our world to the world of the Bible. But they leave us there, assuming we can somehow make the return journey on our own. In other words, they focus on the original meaning of the passage but don't discuss its contemporary application. The information they offer is valuable -- but the job is only half done! The NIV Application Commentary Series helps us with both halves of the interpretive task. This new and unique series shows readers how to bring an ancient message into a modern context. It explains not only what the Bible meant but also how it can speak powerfully today. |

| No other reference series gets to the heart of the Old Testament as efficiently as the Holman Old Testament Commentary. When a reader's time allows, this series offers a detailed interpretation based on the popular NIV text. When time is short, the HOTC delivers an essential understanding of the Old Testament with unsurpassed clarity and convenience. Ezekiel's prophecy is set in the turbulent years of Jerusalem's destruction. He was the only Israelite prophet to carry out his ministry entirely outside Israel's homeland. When Jerusalem fell in 586 B.C., Ezekiel's message changed. Judgment had fallen, and he was vindicated as a true prophet among his fellow exiles. With few exceptions, thereafter, his messages were proclamations of hope. But Ezekiel emphasized always that Israel's future restoration would be a work of divine grace. |

| One of the major themes of Scripture is God's dependability and His covenant love to His people in good times and bad. Ezra and Nehemiah together show how God chose Cyrus, a pagan king, to defeat the Babylonians and to be His servant in restoring many of his people from captivity in Babylon back to Judah. Esther is the thrilling account of how God raised up a young Jewish woman to become queen of the Persian Empire. Knute Larson and Kathy Dahlen have made these marvelous books accessible to pastors and lay Bible teachers alike for preaching, teaching, and personal Bible study. |
