The Bible is a Book that came from a geographic place, that place is long ago and far away.
The origin of each of the words is from beyond Earth since God Himself breathed out each word.
But the writing down of the text of each book, that makes up the Book of Books called the Bible, took place on three continents: Europe (some of Paul's Epistles), Africa (some of Moses' writings), and Asia (where most of the Bible was written and took place in the Middle East and Asia Minor).
This class will explain the site lingo like "Tel", layers, eras, historic periods, and the wide number of Biblical sites that are in the Land of the Book. We will define the terms that you will hear so often like Byzantine, Mamluk, Iron Age, ostraca, and so on. All of these will be tied to Biblical Periods and passages.
