No wonder they took this book out of the KJV it is packed with wisdom , I'd hate to be in the shoes of them come judgement time !

I think i need a copy of this Cambridge Edition of the Bible. I have Ecclesiastes and it only goes to chapter 12.. I see the word Cambridge and I think lots of money for that Bible. I am trying to study the sins of the flesh and gifts of the Spirit with William Barclay so very interesting but my Bible does not have Ecclesiasticus or Empedocles or other stuff. I do have The American College Dictionary and for word study it is great. Can your recommend any other books I should have to help with my word studies? Thank you. I just say you Ministry classes online her...Maybe maybe maybe
