Historical Geography of Bible Lands

Resumen del Libro

Excerpt from Historical Geography of Bible Lands: A Manual for Teachers The subject-matter of the course is weighty enough for adult students, while the method is sufficiently simple and vivid for pupils of fourteen years of age. The thirteen chapters provide a three-months' course of thirteen lessons. The course thus meets the requirements of a summer session of a Sunday school. If a more thorough study of the material provided. By the manual is desired, a course of several months' duration may be arranged by subdividing the chapters and devoting two or more lessons to each of them. This book is a manual for teachers, and, in accordance with modern practice, it furnishes more information than a teacher will be able to impart, especially to the younger students for whom the course is primarily intended. The pupil's book is an Historical Atlas of Bible Lands. It contains the historical and geographical tables which are in the manual, and provides for eight maps and several pictures. Two of the maps are entirely complete as printed. Six of them are develop ment maps designed to be finished by the pupil by means of pen and crayon. Three of the development maps and the pictures are optional. The maps for the Historical Atlas are double the size of those in the manual, and seven of them correspond, map for map, to the first seven of the maps of the manual. The manual itself may be used as a text book by teacher-training classes, by adult Sunday-school classes desiring a review of Bible history, and by college Bible classes. On account of the maps in the manual, such classes will be able to prosecute the course successfully without the aid of the Historical Atlas. The Atlas will prove valuable for them, however, if they employ it as an additional text book, for adults are never too old to develop these maps. The more mature the student the more he will learn from such work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
