Israel Guide Book

I am pleased at long last to publish the electronic edition of Eretz Israel The Land of Jehovah & The Inheritance of Israel. This work by AustenD is a brief guide book to sites in Israel. It references scores of important sites in the Biblical land of Israel.

Each site has sections that include: Location, Biblical Records (the majority of significant mentions of that site in the Bible), Archaeology (a brief synopsis of archaeologically significant material relating to that site), Occupation History (which archaeological time periods were active at that site), Excavation History (significant archaeological digs at that site), Discoveries (certain important archaeological discoveries at that site), and Noteworthy Things. It has an exhaustive index as well as other useful features including a brief chart of archaeological time periods, a list of selected important dates in Israel's history, a glossary of terms, and maps.

It is a must-have companion for anyone visiting the modern state of Israel. It is also quite useful for anyone wishing a better understanding of Biblical places. It is a highly practical, concise source of information on many Biblical sites in Israel. It certainly is not an exhaustive scholarly work, but it's greatest strength is the wealth of information in one quick and easy reference work. Hopefully, its contents will encourage the Bible Student to pursue other sources of information on the material he or she is exposed to in this work.
