This is a book that balances information with visuals.
One of the DK (Dorling Kindersley) books that have been reprinted numerous times, it has something like over 500 illustrations in its 544 pages: photos, charts, mosaics, reproductions of classic paintings, archeological images, line drawings, time lines, maps, you name it.
It is kid-friendly, student-friendly, and adult-friendly.
Once you start looking through it you cannot put it down.
Chapters roughly follow in the order of the books: Old Testament to New Testament, but there are sections that expand and enrich, like "Judaism at the Time of Jesus," or "The Mission of Peter," or "Christian Ethics," or "Temples and the Tabernacle," even "Animals in the Bible."
With an A-Z of People and Places in the Bible, a Glossary, an Index, and a 10 page Bibliography, you can use this book to go to new places. | | | Write your own review about Complete Bible Handbook: An Illustrated Companion
