New Bible Atlas Edited by John H. Paterson, Donald J. Wiseman, John J. Bimson and D. R. Wood
Description From The Publisher: The message of God in the Bible came to people at specific times and in specific places. The definite geographic and historical setting of the Bible is distinct among the world's religions. The New Bible Atlas opens with an overview of the topography, geology, climate, vegetation and key physical features of the region. It then takes readers through the main historical eras of biblical history. Beginning with the journeys of Abraham and the children of Israel, it then sheds light on the exodus and the conquest of othe Promised Land. The development of the monarchy, the divided kingdom and the postexilic era are illustrated with dozens of additional maps and photographs. The intertestamental and New Testament periods are given full coverage, from Herod the Great to the Tetrarchs, from the Sea of Galilee to the early church congregations. Special sections also highlight the empires and peoples of the biblical era, the city of Jerusalem, and the Holy Land today. Here is the one resource you will need to understand the beauty and the significance of the land that has been central to religious history for millenia.
