"From the history and design of the temple to God's relationship to the universe, you'll find it here. The land and cultures, battle, and feast days, heroes and villains of Scripture all com alive through entries of meticulous clarity and detail, and breathtaking, full-color images. Previously published as the bestselling and internationally acclaimed Zondervan Handbook to the Bible, this beautiful volume contains extraordinary photographs, illustration, maps, and charts. " From the back of the book.
