This is my choice for a Bible atlas. The text and maps are clear and accurate. The map citation index and Scripture index are complete. The time line and color photos help to make this an interesting atlas. For Bible teachers, a complete set of matching overhead transparencies is available. My Bible college students have voted this their #1 choice.
I'm a graduate student and bought the book for a class at the seminary that I attend. Even as a graduate student, the books' geography is way too detailed for a quick survey of the land. But, if you are looking for a very detailed, informative Atlas, then this is the book to buy.
This map book will really help the student of the bible. When you read scripture and find place names you can open this book and see where it is / was. I find this helpful in bringing the bible to life. It is really wonderful to see each page and be able to follow the spread of mankind out of mesopotamia along with the book of Genesis. Then, you see the world that the hebrews moved into after their time in Egypt, all the way up to the Roman empire. The new testament travels are easy to follow as you are able to see the cities at that time. If you are into end times eschatology you can see the lands spoken of on an actual map, (ie Gomer, Tubal, Rosh, etc.) called out by their ancient names (Modern Turkey by the way).
This is an outstanding atlas which contains so much data about the Holy Land that it's impossible to describe in a few lines. Those who compiled this source have created maps and data on a very complex region of the world based on important and accurate historical data as it changed through out the course of history. As borders came and went, as country's shifted lines of demarcation, as various tribes of people moved about and as important ancient cities rose and fell, this atlas shows it all. It's really an amazing accomplishment to have assembled this work. I cannot recommend it highly enough for the historian, bible scholar or student; anyone wanting to see the the Bible come alive. I would say this atlas is a must for anyone who reads and studies The Bible and history in general. 5-Stars.
If you're interested in geography and you care about the Holy Land, you'll have a hard time putting down this book. Great as a reference or a coffee table book.
It's hard to imagine a more complete and clear set of maps of the Bible. It had everything I expected plus some real surprises. No student of the Scriptures should be without this amazing resource.

A good evangelical Bible atlas with much historical background. I would recommend this as the number one resource for those interested in an introductory Bible atlas.
