Cartas's New Century Handbook and Atlas of the Bible

Carta's New Century Handbook and Atlas of the Bible, a concise version of The Sacred Bridge: Carta's Atlas of the Biblical World, is meant for use by all who have a love for biblical history. College teachers may find it useful for undergraduates alongside the standard Carta Bible Atlas, which it complements by being more a historical geography.

The object of this concise version is to augment the personal Bible study of all who seek a straightforward understanding of biblical history. Nevertheless, the reader will still have the sense that sacred history came about in a real world, a realm illumined by a multitude of discoveries and studies during the past two hundred years. Furthermore, the geographical dimension of the Bible accounts is thoroughly presented. Every Bible student may thus step into the ancient reality and feel the events as they were experienced by the ancient Israelites and their neighbors.

This new historical handbook will enrich the Bible reading experience of an even wider audience in whose lives the Sacred Canon enjoys special significance.
