Baker Encyclopedia of Bible Places

Lists alphabetically the main towns, cities, bodies of water, and mountains mentioned in the Bible, with scriptural references

The Baker Encyclopedia of Bible Places is a major reference and resource book for the topography and archaeology of Bible times. Listing alphabetically all the main towns and cities, villages and settlements, streams and rivers, countries and states mentioned in the Bible, it is fully illustrated in color throughout. The fruit of the specialist knowledge of more than seventy scholars, the text reflects the latest in archaeological and biblical studies.
The Bible resonates with place names such as Jerusalem and Jericho, Assyria and Babylon, Bethlehem and Nazareth. But it also records numerous, less familiar place names, whose location and history are often difficult to unravel. This book, representing the joint scholarship of more than seventy specialists in Near Eastern studies, ancient history, and biblical studies, is an alphabetically organized encyclopedia that lists and discusses every significant place mentioned in Scripture.
The text of the encyclopedia contains copious biblical references and is fully illustrated throughout in color, featuring accurate maps, diagrams, and charts, and plentiful color photographs.
