Hastings Children
This material seems appropriate for children ages 8-12. Like the Great Texts for adults, this 6 volume set examines the Great Texts of the Bible, but from a child's perspective. (I found the text fascinating from an adult's perspective as well in what practical lessons Hastings decided to draw from the text).
Each section begins with a scripture, and Hastings uses illustrations to relate the meaning of the passage for a child's life. Hastings focuses on practical lessons and the moral of the story that children might apply to their lives.
Unlike most of the other modules on this website, this is not intended to be an exact reproduction of Hastings material. I did make a number of changes to the theology, wording, illustrations, and meaning of some passages. This was necessary to make the material understandable and appropriate for a modern child.
Because Hastings studied the classics as an undergraduate, many sections include classic poems and classic literature quotes.
theWord Edition
The 6 volumes translates into about 4 megabytes of text. The download page shows a self installing version (exe file) and a manual install version (zip file).
The download page includes two theWord versions: 1) Commentary and 2) Book. The content is identical. The only difference is the presentation (one is a commentary and the other in Book format).
