hungry to hear the Word, while their pastors need an easy-to-read Biblical text through which they can increase their understanding of God’s Word, and more effectively teach their flock. Dr. Patrick Tang, a career pastor, Biblical scholar and teacher, recognized this need years ago. For more than 10 years, in fact, he has moved quietly across China, teaching spiritual leaders the power of the Word in their own language. He was so moved by the lack of a comprehensive, analytically based Bible that he spent 15 years carefully analyzing every verse, every chapter, every book of the Bible and formatting Scripture pages into an “easy to read” layout format. The first printing of the Chinese Analytical Layout (CAL) Bible was sold out almost immediately through word-of-mouth, bought by Biblical scholars and by evangelical organizations for distribution to Christian leaders in China. Now a second edition is available, as more and more not-for-profit groups, pastoral trainers and others realize that this Bible will help fan the flames of God’s word and the news of salvation across the length and breadth of China.

Dr. Tang has included a long list of features that make Biblical preaching, teaching and study more powerful and effective than ever! • Every book of the Bible is enhanced with information about: 1) Its author; 2) The purpose of the book, and for whom it was intended; 3) Each book’s time and place in history and valuable background material; 4) A complete outline that includes every verse, giving pastors and teachers an instant reference for any scripture; 5) A graphic horizontal chart providing a quick overview of the book; 6) Cross-references that connect a passage with others in the Bible. • Charts and maps that illustrate Paul’s missionary journeys, list the kings of Israel and Judah, major covenants of the Bible, reveal the harmonies of the Gospels; the “7’s and 3’s” of Revelation, and other visually strong information;

A horizontal chart of every book in the Bible works like a “Biblical spreadsheet” to be read and understood clearly and immediately. Visit the web site, www.BibleExpositon.org The CAL Bible has been developed to prepare pastors, teachers and evangelicals of every Christian faith to reach and teach the peoples of China and around the world in their own language! No other Bible exists with the power and resources to touch the souls of the Chinese people. But it must be delivered to the mission field – in fact, the largest single mission field in the history of the world – by Christian men and women who know and understand the Scriptures. The CAL Bible provides that knowledge and understanding to anyone who reads Chinese. It’s easy to follow and easy to use in the classroom, in the pulpit, and in the quiet time of study, prayer and reflection.
