The material below is primarily material prepared for Bible classes, mostly for adults, but some for high school classes and some for middle school classes. The attempt has always been to discern what God's will is, not to justify man's will. But the attempt has been made by a fallible man. Each one of us will give account before our Creator, and will be judged by his word, not by the comments made or conclusions drawn in the lessons linked below. Let these lessons and notes provoke you to deeper study of God's word, but let God's word be the end of the matter. | How to View Greek Text in the Study Notes |

Much useful material in the endnotes is now more readily accessible. The text and endnotes are linked in both directions to allow the reader to easily move back and forth.

The following article, written by J. W. McGarvey, appeared in Lard's Quarterly in 1868 and was
signed simply "M." It is made available here because it is particularly needed and timely. It ought to
be read by every Christian who supposes modern wars can be justified by an appeal to the Old
Testament. It is reproduced here in a manner intended to appoximate the page layout as originally printed.Jewish Wars as Precedents for Modern Wars
