The Best “Then and Now” Bible Atlas Ever It has Features No Other Has!

Rose Atlas of Then and Now Bible Maps with Biblical Backgrounds and Culture is the only Bible atlas with a combination of

  • 120 stunning detailed Bible maps

  • Incredible insights into the lives of 30 important Bible characters. This atlas makes a speciality of people not regions — and how the geography affected their lives and decisions.

Learn About the Holy Land From the Man Who Trains Israeli Tour Guides!

This best-selling Bible atlas used to be authored by Dr. Paul H. Wright, president of Jerusalem University College (Institute of Holy Land Studies). Over time Dr. Wright has led thousands of university students and adults on field studies right through Israel, the Palestinian territories, Jordan, Egypt and the Sinai, many to out-of-the-way places not usually seen by students of the Bible.

For example:

  • Know how David’s clever understanding of geography and politics led to his marriage with Ahinoam of Jezreel.
  • Discover why Naomi, in the Book of Ruth, couldn’t just move back to Bethlehem after her husband’s death and use his land again.
  • Find out why Moses and the Children of Israel took the long southern trek from Egypt to the Promised Land, quite than the direct route.

This atlas will give you implausible insights into your favorite Bible stories. See the Table of Contents at the bottom.
