Product Description

Every Bible place--from Abana to Zuph--described and explained.

In many ways, the Bible is a book of history--and history occurs in specific places. Knowing the cities, nations, and other locales of scripture helps us to better understand the message of the Bible. 

The Dictionary of Bible Places is a quick and easy reference to the roughly 1,100 geographic locales in God's Word. For every specific place named in the Bible, you'll see

• the number of times the name is mentioned in either the Old or New Testaments
• the meaning of the name from the Hebrew or Greek
• a brief description of the place and what happened there
• the first and last Bible references for the place

Also featuring key references for prominent locales, cross-references for places with multiple names, and time lines and maps to put the entries into a greater context, The Dictionary of Bible Places is graphically enhanced for ease of use. It's ideal for Bible study--or just interesting reading!
