I bought this book because it is a resource item for the Veritas Press History program that my children are using for homeschool. When I received it in the mail, I flipped through it, then sat down and kept reading, and at 1:00 a.m. I MADE myself put it down, so that I could go to sleep. It has tons of modern-day photos of historical biblical sites. It also has diagrams, pictures of items used in biblical times and background information about daily life in Isreal, Palistine, Egypt and more. I have learned so much from reading this book! I know it is supposed to be like an encyclopedia, but I read it from front to back and cannot wait to teach my children all that it holds. It is not organized by Bible book or by subject, but by chronological bible stories. The first section is about creation, the second about the fall of man, the third about Cain and Abel, etc. I cannot recommend this book more highly. Every christian should own one. A very solid resource.Read full review

I homeschool our 3 daughters. This book has been a great asset to their schooling (our schooling). We all have learned a lot of history behind the books/stories in the Bible. It makes the stories come alive a little more because of knowing the history behind them. This is a wonderful asset to any family that wants to enrich their Bible Study time!!

This is a well-known book that brings to life the setting in which the Bible was written, and helps the reader to visualize the events and circumstances that scriptural stories contain. There are alot of color photos, and the descriptions are very easy to understand. The writer is unbiased, and does not get fan ciful in his descriptions
