The Holy Land Handbook

Visit the Holy Land,
wherever you might be!
 
The Holy Land Handbook is a beautifully illustrated guide to the history, culture, geography, and key sites of the Bible. This “readable reference” transports you to the land where Abraham, David, and Jesus lived, explaining the what, when, where, and why of their stories—and many, many more.
 
The Holy Land Handbook provides details on the history, setting, and importance of more than 130 key locales, including
 
The Dead Sea
Bethlehem
The Jordan River
Capernaum
The Jezreel Valley
And many more
 
The Holy Land Handbook also covers the all-important city of Jerusalem with individual entries on spots such as
 
The Western Wall
The Pool of Bethesda
The Upper Room
Gordon’s Calvary
Church of the Holy Sepulchre
 
Fully illustrated in color, with helpful maps and intriguing sidebars, The Holy Land Handbook is great prep for those visiting the Middle East—and an equally great read for “armchair travelers” who want to better understand the Bible story.
