The Book of Ruth: The Word for Word Bible Comic is a 52-page graphic novel using the NIV translation. For kids 12+
This graphic novel presents every word, chapter and verse, from the biblical Book of Ruth within its historical, cultural and geographical context. The unabridged story is illustrated in a bold contemporary style but remains as faithful to the Old Testament scripture as possible.
It is a tale of two widows trying to survive in ancient Israel and has a nuanced prophetic subtext all too often lost in children's picture books. Featuring the best selling English Bible translation, the NIV, with verse numbers at the bottom of each page. Presented with a matt laminated cover and high-quality, full-color, gloss paper interiors.
It is aimed at mature readers but is appropriate for ages 12+.
The Story: Under the capricious and increasingly faithless government of the Judges period, the promised land has become war-torn and desolate. Famine and death jolt this story into motion and make a family of God's chosen people into desperate refugees. The book of Ruth is at once historical and prophetic, it tells the intertwined story of two dauntless women and the integral parts they play within the ultimate story of the Author and perfecter of all things.

The Book of Ruth is awesome. It has amazing artwork and Wonderful illustration. I have already read a book similar to this name as Good and evil and have also worked on it in urdu language and I love your work. As I'm also related to graphic designing and CBC Pakistan so I have a found of learning more about bible and then to preach about the bible more and more. This book is amazing for the teenagers and especially for the non believers because they can understand the main things from this kind of comic and then they will get crousity to know more about bible, so this is good for the non believers. God bless you for this amazing work.
