Synopsis

Unlock the geography behind the Bible with a clear, study-friendly overview.

This slim volume presents a practical summary of Biblical Geography, from the Patriarchal age through the New Testament. It also offers a compact look at the modern geography of Europe, Asia, and Africa, with maps and guidance designed for theological students.

This edition explains the three-part framework—Patriarchal, Jewish, and Christian—and shows how geography helps fix Bible events in memory. It also discusses how terms like land, isle, coast, and sea are used, and how the Promised Land was imagined and divided among the tribes. The author draws on multiple authorities and provides pointers for map use to support study without replacing fuller works.
