The Bible is not only a spiritual book but also a historical record connected to real places around the world. Many regions mentioned thousands of years ago correspond to modern countries today




From the Middle East and Africa to Europe and Asia. From ancient Persia (modern Iran) to Mesopotamia (modern Iraq) and Cush (modern Ethiopia/Sudan), biblical geography helps us understand the historical context of scripture and the civilizations that shaped human history.
Learning these locations allows readers to see how the stories of the Bible are rooted in real lands that still exist today.
