About this title

Synopsis

This book gives a thorough overview of every geographical reference in the Bible, including cross-references to every occasion in which a location is mentioned in the Old and New Testaments. Along with this, the author also includes breakdowns of what the given locations are, what significance they had, and other pertinent details which add greater context and depth to one's understanding of the Bible. Particularly focused on historical and theological accuracy, the author does not shy away from addressing occasions in which the current location has changed, clarifying what these places would have been called in different time periods and why, for a more complete and nuanced picture. Any serious student of the Bible, or one who is curious about the geographical context of the Bible will find this companion to be a significant resource.
