THE OLD TESTAMENT ERA 2166 B.C.—7 B.C.
The Old Testament era includes the story of how God first created heaven and earth and then created his people. This book picks up the thread of history where reliable dating of biblical events begins—with God's choosing of Abraham. God first chose Abraham's family, and after the Exodus, at Sinai, the family became a nation. The nation of Israel later became a monarchy but soon descended into sin, resulting in a period of exile in Babylon. Only a remnant of the nation ever returned from captivity, but God encouraged his people through a series of prophets who foretold a full restoration of God's people and of his coming kingdom.
