Hammond Atlas of the Bible LandsUser Review: - Best Bible Maps!These maps are incredible. Places in the Bible in the OT that you can't find in some others, it's here! On the outside, it looks like a children's book; but once you utilize it in your study of the Scripture, it is phenomenal. User Review: - QualityThis product was delivered to me in excellent condition. It was brand new just as promised. I am very satisfied with the books that I have received from Amazon.com. User Review: - Great OverviewAn affordable atlas of bible lands. Great for college students to get a general background on the topology and locations where historical Biblical events occured. User Review: - Best Atlas of Bible Lands Ever PrintedMy husband and I teach an indepth class on the Old Testament one semester then the New Testament the next semester alternating. We used the previous edition of this same book, but we were even more blown away by the new revised edition. Every student of the Bible needs to purchase one. They are priceles. User Review: - Fits Bible Study needs in every way! Buy It.The Hammond 'Atlas of the Bible Lands' satisfies every imaginable objective I may have for an aid to Bible study. This is especially true since the book is published by people who understand people who use maps. For starters, it includes historical maps from the very earlist period where an event in the Bible can be associated with a real historical location through the travels of Jesus' apostles, plus a map of modern Palestine. Then, like every other serious atlas, the volume includes a wide range of maps which go beyond the familiar political boundaries. For example, it includes serious physical maps of Palestine, as well as maps of climate and economic centers. Lastly, the volume includes a map of the entire Roman Empire (albeit with some important corners of the British Isles left off). While Christianity may not have reached Britannia or Hispania in the lifetimes of Peter, Paul, or the other early Apostles, it is certainly important to have the entire empire when reading New Testament and early Church Father writings. The very best aspect of the volume is the modest cost for this marvelous volume. I've seen other books on this subject and none come close. I only wish there were some way of acquiring wall hanging sized blowups of some of the maps.
