My bible study teacher says this is one of the best sources you can have.

Use this all the time. My bible study teacher, also an ordained minister, really knows her bible. So her word is important to me.

historical atlas of the bible,

Easy for me to see the times that events took place in relation to each other. Good and easy to understand information

Chock full of historical information (and, of course, maps)

I highly recommend this Atlas whether you are religious or just interested in history; I found it very informative regarding the bronze age in the middle east. On the religious side, I have a well annotated Bible which already includes great maps and pictures, but I still found myself wondering where exactly something occurred-- this Atlas has it all. Additionally, it includes nice sections on cultures touched on by the Bible which shed light on what is happening, and why. If you are already a professional historian or theologian, you might just be interested in the maps, but for laypeople like myself, this book is chock full of treasure.

Exceptional example of value for money.

Exceeded expectations in detail, color, content and quality. Please, do your self a favor. Order it!

THE Bible Atlas!!

Have you struggled with knowing which Bible atlas to get? This is the one. I have been disappointed for years with ordering bible atlas's and not liking them. They usually don't have clear enough pictures or enough detail or the particular maps I'm looking for. I was blown away when I received this atlas! It exceeds my expectations. It is well worth the bucks.
