Making Bible
Geography Meaningful

Enjoyed the travels through the Holy Land with Jack Beck thanks for the inspiring presentation of Christ and our history of God’s people and actually see the places he walked and of the people of the Bible, it helps to bring God’s word to Life, l will see it for real whenever l would read the Bible, thank you so much for bringing for us to see, God Bless you Jack Beck.

Understanding the word on a whole new level thank you Lord!

I will say it without equivocation, ‘Every teacher of the Bible needs a copy of John Beck’s new book, The Baker Book of Bible Charts, Maps, and Time Lines.’ Beck, a thirty-five-year veteran Bible teacher has provided more than two-hundred pages of Bible charts, maps, pictures, and background resources to help Bible teachers do their job better and more efficiently.

We’re grateful for this video series, especially because we can share it with our children. Thank you for taking us to the Holy Land.

This message is profound. Jack has graphically demonstrated what the wilderness experience must have been for Jesus–the deprivation, the loneliness. Jack’s given us a deeper sense of what Jesus endured for us. The cost of His obedience is sobering. Thank you Jesus.

Travelers to Israel often ask me if there is a guidebook I recommend. John Beck has provided me with a definitive answer.

I now look at the land and read the Word of God with a new pair of eyes.

Every student of Scripture needs at least one book on biblical backgrounds and culture. Everyday Life in Bible Times is most well researched and up to date resource currently available. I highly recommend that it be included in every pastor and teacher’s library.

As one of many who have walked the biblical land with John, this narrative felt like sitting at the feet of one of the elders and hearing our family story of salvation. He helps us ponder our deep roots in the land. The reader will be able to ground historical theology in the actual soil on which so much of the Bible unfolds and will better understand the complete story from Genesis to Revelation.

Thank you for sharing a visual walk through the bible. It gives those places in the bible more depth.
