A Compendious History Of The Jews by John Bigland. This concise historical compendium, written for schools and young readers, offers a chronological panorama of the Jewish people from biblical origins through the rise and fall of their kingdoms, the Babylonian exile, the Persian restoration, the Maccabean era, and the subsequent periods of foreign rule that culminate in the destruction of Jerusalem and the dispersion. Bigland blends scriptural narrative with political and religious history to illustrate how the Jews preserved their identity through revolutions, captivities, and revolts, and how their history reflects the providence of God guiding nations. The work surveys institutions of Moses’ law, the tabernacle, and festivals, explains the lives of the patriarchs, Saul, David, and Solomon, and traces the division of the kingdom, the captivities, and the long road to restoration and independence under the later Hasmonean and Roman eras. It includes questions for examination and aims to make history accessible to learners while highlighting the connection between Jewish history and the gospel.
