A Syllabus – “…the best collection of biblical and extra-biblical sources…” Teaching History and Historical Geography of Bible Lands outlines a path to understanding the Bible. These lectures are a tour de force in the discipline of historical geography and Rainey is the acknowledged master of this discipline.
The contents of the Bible are so closely related to the lands or cities in which the recorded events took place, and in which the documents themselves were written, that it helps greatly to know something about those lands and cities.
SITES AND EVENTS IN THE OLD TESTAMENT – Much of the Bible’s imagery was inspired by the land – sea and star, animal, plant and mineral sources, climate and the wilderness. The biblical authors drew inspiration from the fragrances of the field and vineyard.
