A Visual Guide to Gospel Events
Fascinating Insights Into Where They Happened and Why
As the inspired authors of the Bible relayed the story of salvation, they frequently mentioned place names that contributed to the story. Yet readers who are separated from the texts by thousands of years and thousands of miles are often unable to fully understand or appreciate those references.
In the tradition of the well-received A Visual Guide to Bible Events, authors James C. Martin, John A. Beck, and David G. Hansen offer this new resource focusing on the Gospel narratives. This beautiful, full-color book is filled with photographs, maps, and easy-to-read explanations. The engaging writing style makes this resource perfect for anyone—student, scholar, pastor, or layperson–who wants to understand the events recorded in the Gospels in a deeper way.
If it were possible, I would give this publication a 10* rating. It arrived in fantastic condition, and exceeded my expectations for a Bible lands pictorial book. It, indeed, covered all of the areas in Biblical history that we often wonder about. Great Book!

Most Bible students know that context is everything in trying to understand the text. What this book provides that many others do not is information about the location context for many familiar Bible verses. This literally opens up a whole new way to go deeper into the text.

This is a collection of brief, but expertly written accounts of Gospel events. By combining scripture, geography, pictures, maps and images it connects the dots and provides clear insight into the meaning and context of Gospel stories. I bought this book because I had the wonderful experience of being on a field study of the Holy Land, which was led by one of the authors John ‘Jack’ Beck through Jerusalem University College. This book is a perfect follow-up and builds on that experience, but it can also provide new and intriguing insight for anyone who has not been to the Holy Land.
