The Old Testament Books covered in the Moses to Judges unit include Exodus, Numbers, Joshua, Judges, Ruth, and Job. For a primary scriptural reference, we recommend either either the Douay Reims or the Revised Standard Version. Both can be found online:
- The Bible Gateway is a well-known and very usable search engine for Bible passages and includes complete version of over 20 Bibles (Catholic and Protestant).
- This version of the Douay Reims Bible contains good search algorithms and includes a summary of each chapter, making browsing easier.
A high quality Children's Bible is also very helpful for the Moses to Judges unit. Many of the study questions in the Old Testament units are based on familiar Bible stories. The following simplified Bible Histories are available in electronic form online or as an ebook.

Story of the Chosen People by Helene Guerber
Guerber's history of the Jewish people tells many familiar stories from the Old Testament.
She recounts the stories of Genesis and Moses in
detail, then moves quickly through the histories of Israel and Judea and uses independent
historical sources to describe events of the Babylonian captivity and exile of the Jews.
Her story passes over the life of Christ but ends with the conquest of Judea by the Romans
and the destruction of the Temple.
