This is the 1st book in a five book series that has 35 1 page articles along with 35 color photos.

Each of these 5 Pictorial books have 35 full-page colour plates, accompanied by 35 one-page articles that are both informative and inspirational. The articles are an explanatory comment on the biblical text, written with a practical up-to-date relevance that makes the books suitable for a range of uses, from easy-to-read reference materials to attractive gift books.

Abraham's homeland is present-day Iraq; the Palestine of Jesus' ministry is today a land of turmoil. This book gives a brief but instructive view of Bible lands - from Mesopotamia to Palestine, from North Africa to Syria, from Asia Minor to Italy - then and now.

I will be working on the remaining books in the series. Others include:

Following Jesus
Going Places with Paul
Parables and Pictures
Proverbs Today
