A Bible Reference for the Man-in-the-Street: A Very Informal Bible Commentary for Everyman - Paperback

by Alex Hafner (Author)

This book is a brief commentary on the Bible, written in an informal manner, somewhat conversational. It does not pretend to be authoritative, it is just my comments on Scripture. I was born on the seventeenth of December, in the year of our Lord nineteen twenty-seven, in Selma, Alabama, the youngest of seven. I graduated from Sidney Lanier High School in Montgomery, and was educated in engineering, physics, and mathematics at the University of Alabama and University of Alabama Huntsville. I served in the United States Army Armored Cavalry in 1950, '51, and '52. I worked at various jobs during and before college days, including several months in an iron ore mine. After graduate school I worked as a physicist at the Naval Research Labs in Washington, DC and as an engineer at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center. I am now retired and work at nothing but an occasional puzzle, such as Sudoku or cryptograms. My wife and I enjoyed traveling North America in our motor home.
