Synopsis
The gold standard of Bible atlases! Documenting over 3,000 years of history, The Sacred Bridge is an up-to-date depiction of Biblical history, geography, and archaeology that incorporates ancient Near Eastern sources into the narrative of the Atlas. With impeccable scholarship, this stunning Bible atlas contains full-color maps, pictures, and diagrams that reflect 10 years of research. Every ancient extra-biblical passage is interpreted firsthand, from its native language. Up-to-date archaeological evidence has been included and explained wherever relevant.
Unique features of The Sacred Bridge:
- Includes chronological overviews of the ancient Near East
- This is the first Atlas to adopt the modern approach to the study of the Levant as a geographical/historical entity.

- Detailed references to the most recent scholarly works on ancient texts consulted and cited for each period of ancient history.
- Reasoned proposals for the identification and location of ancient sites.
- Ecology, Sociology and Geopolitical economy of Ancient Israel and her neighbors emphasized.
