From the earliest evidence of mankind in Palestine to the rise of the Christian Church, "The Times Concise Atlas of the Bible" places the whole of biblical history in its geographical context. Drawing on the work of an international team of 50 archaeologists, linguists, historians and theologians and illustrated with over 250 maps, site reconstructions and colour photographs, its comprehensive coverage and authoritative accompanying text make it a suitable companion to the Bible and biblical studies. Detailed biblical references accompany each subject and the "New Testament" section gives a fresh account of the life and influcence of Christ and of his disciples.

Gibeon, Where the Sun Stood Still: The Discovery of the Biblical City

<p>This first book-length presentation of the results of our excavations at el-Jib has been written for the general reader who is concerned with the contribution that archaeology has made to the biblical history of the site.... In telling the story of Gibeon I have tried to show how the tale of the city unfolded week by week and year by year through excavation and study. I have sought to give in these pages a personally conducted tour, as it were, of the ruins of ancient Gibeon and what we have seen in them.... The results of the excavations at el-Jib are unique in that they can be related with a high degree of certainty to specific events described in the Old Testament. For the first time in the history of scientific archaeology in the land of the Bible an actual place name of a biblical city, neatly incised on clay, has been found under circumstances which make certain the identification of the name with the ruins.--from the Preface</p>
