5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Companion to Bible for Both Child and Adult!, December 8, 1999

By 

O. Simons (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Student Bible Atlas (Paperback)

This is definitely a worthy purchase if you have a child and as well if you (admit it) still get mixed up a bit with Middle East geography, especially when it comes to what an area was called years ago and what its present-day name is. When you read a passage to your child, show him with this each time where that scripture was taking place at that time period (the atlas shows name changes and political boundaries in different time segments). You both will have a much better understanding of what was taking place where and when.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Student Bible Atlas, October 28, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: The Student Bible Atlas (Paperback)

I have been looking for just this kind of atlas for my 5th and 6th grade Sunday School class. The main thing I like about it is that it uses the same map of Israel and shows it at the various periods. Most atlases and Sunday School curricula show various maps instead of one map that changes over time. I liked the comparison maps of the empires. The comments and illustrations with each map are also useful.
