      Holman Book of Biblical Charts, Maps, and Reconstructions - Marsha A. Ellis Smith

      Holman Book of Biblcial Charts, Maps, and Reconstructions, Digital Edition

      Based on Print Edition

      © Copyright 1993 Broadman & Holman Publishers

      All rights reserved

      ISBN: 978-1-5581-9359-8

      Bible passages are from the Holy Bible, New International Version, copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society. Used by permission.

      EDITORIAL FOREWORD

      The word of God is the very foundation of our lives. And to know His word we must read and study it. With this in mind, we have developed the Holman Book of Biblical Charts, Maps, and Reconstructions with a two-fold purpose:

      (1) To provide a tool for use in personal study; and

      (2) To provide a teaching aid for small group Bible study.

      Many Bible study tools—dictionaries, handbooks, encyclopedias, and study Bibles—contain various charts, maps, and artists' reconstructions. The problem we wanted to solve is how to keep a book open to a helpful visual and yet continue following the text of the volume as you study. Our answer is the book you now hold in your hands. You can prop this volume open on your desk while you are at home studying or you can display it opened to a particular page on a table, chair, or even on the floor when you are leading a small group Bible study. If the visual is in a vertical page design, find the desired pages and set the book open at an angle. The hard cover material and wire binding will enable it to stand alone. If the visual you want to use is in a horizontal page design, turn the covers all the way back and set it on the table as you would a flip chart. The cover and binding will support this usage as well. A few of the horizontal charts are two pages in length and will need some assistance to be shown. We think this format provides a needed medium for use with those groups not quite large enough to need a wall chart but too large to look over your shoulder at the pages of a book.

      The layout includes three major divisions—one for each type of visual. Within each division the pages are grouped under general (or contemporary in the maps division), Old Testament, and New Testament. Within each of these sections the titles are grouped in a loose alphabetical arrangement. Color bars (the quicktab system introduced in the Holman Bible Dictionary) in the margins of the pages provide easy access to each of the three divisions.

      The Cross References located on pages 167–169 is a normal alphabetical index to all titles and page numbers in this volume. However, it also provides information on where to look in the Holman Bible Dictionary, Holman Bible Handbook, and Disciple's Study Bible to find related articles and background information for each of these titles. We want you to be able to interrelate all of your Holman Bible reference tools.

      We pray that the Holman Book of Biblical Charts, Maps, and Reconstructions will provide a useful source of background information to assist you in your study and sharing of God's message through His written Word.
