<p>Why did an omnipotent God choose such a seemingly inhospitable piece of real estate as the focus of His activity? And why would He over and over describe this barren, seemingly under-endowed country as "a good land"? Is it "good" in the sense of beauty and productivity or, more significantly, in its fitness for some intended purpose? Did the God who instilled meaning into every aspect of His dealings with men, design the land of Israel to be a huge learning environment, perfectly fitted to develop and mold His chosen people? Professor Ceperley, instructor in Old Testament history at Philadelphia College of Bible for over 30 years, answers these intriguing questions in this compact volume. After a sabbatical year of intensive study in Israel, Professor Ceperley then began to lead annual "Exodus" excursions to Bible lands. These tours became increasingly popular because of his leadership and ability to introduce visitors not just to the land, but to the implications of these historic sites. Professor Ceperley later condensed these insights into this helpful manual. Reading it, you too will feel you have toured "a good land." You will gain an understanding of God's design for His people through His design of their land that will enrich all of your study of Scripture.</p>
