I am looking for an excellent bible map reference. I am tired of having to constantly fish for maps that show where places are as I am reading about them.
I want an actual atlas. The kind that contains detailed maps. Preferably atleast some of them showing the geography, like valleys, plains, and mountains. Apparently there is a different kind of atlas that features anything but maps. I do not want pictures, photos, art, charts, the Lord's Prayer or the Ten Commandments. That's what I have a Bible and the catechism for. When I want pictures I go to You Tube. I don't want to see ten pictures. I don't want to see 200 pictures. I don't want descriptions of the Holy Land. I don't want timelines. I don't want a description of each book of the Bible. I don't want conservative interpretations. It seems like the best recommended Bible atlases only have ten actual maps; people have taken fifteen actual videos of one of them, and showed page after page after page of charts and timelines, and three very general maps taht show where next to nothing is. I mean, they show, Mesopotamia, the Sea of Galillee, the Jordan River... not the level of detail I want.
I want a bible that shows me every town and every village I am likely to read about. Not just the main places. And I'd like them all on the same map. I mean, I'd like a miracle taht shows me Shechem and Gilgal Jericho, all on the same map, please, and Bet Pe'or and Ba'l Pe'or, and Shittim, and all three nearby mountains, and shows the geography, like the valley they're supposedly in, and shows and names the rivers. The rivers in Reuben are very small rivers, but they are critical to the story. (On line they seem to most often leave out Shechem, whatever could be ailing them.) I want to see each of the towns and villages of Saul's kingdom in Benjamin; atleast those important to the story.
I just want to know where places are without having to do an hour of research on every village.
I'm really most interested in the Old Testament. The New Testament doesn't have very many places, and none of them are obscure.
Thanks!
