The Exposition of the Bible is a cross-link between "The Oxford English-Hebrew Dictionary" (OEHD) and "The Bible". The link is because the facts we need most are coming from the Bible, which has become the hub of many claims chiefly, "Hebrew". What was Hebraic in The OEHD became an issue because what it presented as Hebrew did not represent Hebrew. It is difficult to write a Hebrew dictionary without clear Hebrew alphabets. A Hebrew dictionary for Hebrew readers and learners should contain clear Hebrew letters. Many dictionaries pose difficulties to their users who may not know how the words were formed or adopted. A dictionary being a collection of letters or words should inform the user of the letters, so that he can learn to shape his knowledge, which comes first before developing it further. If a user does not know what a particular letter stands for or its role in a word, it can mislead. One need not be a literary linguist to notice this in some languages. A look at some etymologies that put many letters, consonants, vowels and double consonants after each other; for example, oo; ghgh, shsh, ou.., reveal their inexplicability from start to finish. Wherever people concoct letters to form words or names (person, place or thing), it is spirit that vibrates (Jen.1:3; John 6:63) and to know the meaning of such spirit or word is important as it may be used in conducting covenants, sanctions or Treaties. When anyone claims an existing letter or name, we check his credence, susceptibility and sustainability of it; Hebrew for claim is not the same as belonging, is it?
It is not at all hidden that every language has ample bias and little admiration for another. Let us consider the first celestial union on earth which is in language between mother and child. Is the first cry of a baby: U-w-a-a! U-w-a-a!! U-w-a-a: a lesser expression of its feeling of the world? If one does not know what "u-w-a-a" means, he misunderstands the baby. Some people misjudge this cry but the baby was saying something: "U-w-a-a!" means "this world". This cry marks the beginning of animation or the baby is abnormal but why this cry? Did it cry while in its mother's womb? It enjoyed a private heaven while in the womb. Coming to the open-world is frightening; very open that it easily leads astray. This has been as obvious as providing us a passage into this work. Everyone cries u-w-a-a but everyone has not been able to grow to manage this open-world. The time has come for us to reassess what happened so that we might get it right. The baby's cry alerts its mother, who says: "my child" (Nwam); soon, the pain of labour ebbs. The response by the Midwife is: "welcome"; and we welcome you to the New Era, which springs from this work. What a language expresses is its experience. Racking head to interpret differs from direct expression. Unlike interpreting fiction, which may yield nothing, a successful interpretation of non-fiction gives rise to something which is checkable; e.g., covenant prohibiting evil or killing; covenant promoting justice, peace and orderliness.
To expose is to reveal, disclose, unveil or open. "The Exposition of the Bible" is a discreet examination, correction, challenge and assurance to the new era to get it right. Old things have passed away but not forgotten but soled and welded with time. Who shall live the new must be informed and forewarned of the danger of indirect living. This type of exposition is rare and why it is happening now must be for a reason. We will start with a short survey to enable you decide whether you shall benefit from this book or not.

- I bought this book entitled "The Exposition Of The Bible" via a recommendation from a mutual friend.
It was a very inspiring read indeed. chapter one was introductory and a bit continuous. However, I was completely flabbergasted by chapter two and subsequent chapters. They were truly revolutionary and eye opening.
If you are a Christian this is the perfect bed side companion. There is just so much more out there a lot of us are not aware of. This book is a revelation indeed.
