The Bible is the foundation of Judaism. Unfortunately, as a result of our long exile, it has been neglected. Jewish studies today usually revolve around the oral traditions like the Talmud, and the Bible is left on the shelf. The Jews wrote it, and the gentiles read it. The fact is, only by studying Tanach can one can learn authentic Jewish concepts - nationalism, leadership, redemption, Eretz Yisrael, war, vengeance.... Through the David's, Saul's, Jonathan's, and other dynamic figures in the Bible, we reveal how a Jew conducted himself in the land of Israel before the exile.
