Capitalizing on recent advances in satellite imaging and geographic information systems, the Crossway ESV Bible Atlas offers Bible readers a comprehensive, up-to-date resource that blends technical sophistication with readability, visual appeal, and historical and biblical accuracy. All the key methods of presenting Bible geography and history are here, including more than 175 full-color maps, 70 photographs, 3-D re-creations of biblical objects and sites, indexes, timelines, and 65,000 words of narrative description. The atlas uniquely features regional maps detailing biblically significant areas such as Egypt, Mesopotamia, Italy, and Greece. It also includes access to online maps and illustrations. This carefully crafted reference tool not only sets a new standard in Bible atlases but will help ESV readers more clearly understand the world of the Bible and the meaning of Scripture. From Booklist: This work is an introduction to the geography of the biblical world and an extension of the maps and other geographical information found in the ESV Study Bible (Crossway, 2008). The first of four parts provides an overview of the land in which the Israelites settled and a description of the relationship between archaeology and biblical studies. The second addresses the places and events mentioned in the books of the Bible. In this part, for example, the story of the exodus of the Hebrews from Egypt is not only described but also illustrated with a map showing the traditional route scholars believe they took as well as three alternatives and photographs of Mt. Sinai, where it is traditionally located. Part 3 is a collection of maps that spans the whole of Bible history and ranges geographically from Anatolia to North Africa. Part 4 provides various appendixes and indexes, such as a time line of biblical history, a general index, a scripture index, and an index of known biblical sites. Finally, a CD-ROM accompanies the atlas, providing digital versions of the historical maps. The ESV in the title refers to the English Standard Version of the Bible. First published in 2001, it strives to be an essentially literal translation from a team committed to historic Christian orthodoxy. It would be safe to assume the conservative-Evangelical stance of that translation will also be found in the information presented in this atlas. Recommended for theological and research libraries as well as libraries with strong collections in biblical archaeology. --Christopher McConnell Reviews: “A remarkably beautiful and rich resource for historical, geographical, and archaeological background material that will deepen our understanding of each section of the Bible and increase our appreciation of the Bible's amazing historical accuracy.” ―Wayne Grudem, Distinguished Research Professor of Theology and Biblical Studies, Phoenix Seminary “This Atlas is a wonderfully illustrated tool to aid the layperson, student of the Scripture, or pastor who wants to dig deeper and gain new insights and appreciation of the setting, context, and message of the Bible. The text is easy to follow, pictures are brilliant, and maps are incredibly useful as the reader moves through the related narratives. I highly recommend this marvelous resource.” ―James K. Hoffmeier, Former Professor of Old Testament and Near Eastern Archaeology, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School “During the 44 years I served as a college professor I used many good atlases. However, I have never seen one comparable to this in the breadth of material, the depth of coverage, and the outstanding quality of its impressive and abundantly illustrated maps and photos of Bible lands.” ―John McRay, Professor Emeritus of New Testament and Archaeology, Wheaton College Graduate School, Wheaton, IL “I had the privilege of being involved in the production of drawings based on the latest research for the ESV Study Bible. It is a joy to see these drawings plus the original ESV Study Bible maps, woven together with numerous new maps, brilliantly evocative photographs and useful indexes to make up the new Crossway Bible Atlas. This volume will become an indispensable companion for Bible students, fulfilling every expectation you might have of such a tool. Particularly innovative is the use of terrain imagery to facilitate the reader’s understanding of such Biblical viewpoints as that of Abraham from Hebron over the cities of the plain or Moses from Mt. Nebo.” ―Leen Ritmeyer, Archaeological Consultant About the Authors: John D. Currid (PhD, University of Chicago), is the Carl W. McMurray Professor of Old Testament at Reformed Theological Seminary. He is currently an adjunct faculty member at the Jerusalem Center for Biblical Studies in Jerusalem, Israel, and serves as project director of the Bethsaida Excavations Project in Israel (1995-present). He lectures and preaches worldwide. David P. Barrett, cartographer for the Crossway ESV Bible Atlas, is a Bible reference editor and the developer of Bible Mapper Software
