Reader Reviews:
At last a reference book that answers questions I ask! (3/4 people found this helpful)
Paul Lawrence needs to be congratulated for this excellent volume. His scholarship is accessible to the lay reader and leads you into a greater understanding of the issues that surrounded the writing of the Bible.
For years I have gone to reference books with specific questions only to be disappointed that the writers only seem to deal with questions of a "scholarly" nature that don't really touch into the real world.
This book is completely different. The graphics are excellent, the maps very helpful and the photographs (an abundance of the them) give the reader a far greater insight into the terrain and culture of the Bible lands than words alone could ever do. Having said that the text is full of good scolarship and an abundance of cultural insight.
To have a wide focus on the lands outside of Israel is really helpful. One friend exclaimed that she never realised so much happened in so many other countries!
This book is a must for anyone who wants to understand the context of the Bible.
