A wonderful reference to accompany your own Bible reading or family Bible studies. It covers selected (major) Bible events chronologically, providing helpful historical and cultural information about traditions, clothing, everyday objects, places, and more. For example, the Tower of Babel entry discusses its location, possible excavation sites, what the name "Babel" means in Akkadian, information about ziggurats (the most probable form of construction), and the birth of nations after the flood. Very interesting, informative and colorful, this profusely illustrated volume abounds with photographs and artistic renderings, besides maps, charts, lists, and diagrams. A welcome addition to your library.

Victor Journey Through the Bible was an awesome supplement to our homeschool curriculum this year! I loved the brief, 2-page daily chapters covering Biblical history. A cumulative review prefaces each chapter, useful repetition for my boys, ages 7 and 10, as well as for us parents! Scripture references are also listed for each section. The color photographs, illustrations, maps, drawings, and charts are fabulous, and we found the chart listing the kings of Judah and Israel very helpful when reading through many Old Testament books of the Bible. The decscription on the front cover of the book is really true! Excellent investment!
