Guide to the Bible

Asimov's book is a true guide to the ancient land where, more than two thousand years ago, an event occurred that changed the course of world history. You will learn about Palestine during the Maccabees and the borders of Herod the Great's domains. You will follow the path of Christ and the apostles in their earthly ministry. Asimov touches on historical geography and ethnography, not neglecting the main biblical plots, ideas, images, and episodes that have so organically woven into the existence of both individual personalities and all of humankind.
