Description

The Oxford Bible Atlas provides an authoritative guide to the geographical context of the biblical world. With twenty-seven full-color maps and eighty-one color illustrations, this revised edition brings the latest biblical scholarship and archaeological discoveries up to date. The Atlas illuminates the landscape of the ancient world, capturing the many locales featured in the Bible's stories and reflecting the successive stages of its accounts. It covers a wide range of topics, from the land of Palestine and its wider ancient Near Eastern and east Mediterranean settings, to the trade routes of the ancient world and the vast empires of Alexander the Great and Rome. This comprehensive resource includes an illustrated survey of archaeology's relevance to biblical study, a full chronology, suggestions for further reading, an index of place names, and a general index.
