Sobre este artículo
1886 ISRAEL 1ed Lebanon Damascus Jordan Jerusalem Syria PALESTINE Holy Land MAPS
"Lebanon, Damascus and Beyond Jordan" is the third installment in William McClure Thomson's series, "The Land and the Book," which paints a vivid picture of the Holy Land as referenced in the Bible. Following 25 years as an American Christian missionary, Thomson provides a rich exploration of the Middle East, offering context to Biblical tales and showcasing the sites and places described in them. In this particular volume, Thomson shifts his focus from the regions west of the Jordan, as covered in his previous works, to areas like Lebanon, Damascus, and regions further east. These places, while not strictly within the Land of Promise, were historically and culturally intertwined with it. Many of these areas were home to the Biblical patriarchs, while others became the first lands conquered by the ancient Hebrews.
This edition is enriched with 147 total illustrations that include maps, full-page plates, and over 100 in-text engravings.
