Countries In The Bible

Togarmah. Lud. Padan-Aram. This book is your guide to discovering the present-day names of ancient countries in the Bible.

The Old Testament is old. Its ancient people were a mystery until their languages inscribed in stones, their pottery, art and buildings rose from the dust or glimmered from caves. Along with the tapestry of daily life, a greater story emerged of empires, kings, queens, opulence and conquests. Myth evaporated and the Bible came to life.

Countries In The Bible: Who They Are Today identifies the modern names of Middle Eastern countries and provides a brief biblical history for each. Also covered are prophecies yet to be fulfilled concerning the Middle East, Gog and Magog, and a history of the creation of Israel and the Palestinian debate.

Europe is not the Bible's focus. The area we call the Middle East is where it declares life began and civilization as we know it will be transformed. This book is your guide to understanding the ancient root of conflict raging there today and who the players are and will be when a new kingdom descends.
