Many Christians suffer from not knowing their History. I cannot say that I don’t suffer from this currently, but I am doing something about it. If you are interested in learning more about history as it pertains to the bible then I just received an awesome resource from amazon.com. It is the Lion Handbook to the Bible shown to the right. For $25 it is an invaluable source in my bible study. Every page is high quality, glossy and full of color.

Here is the description from Amazon.com.
Product Description
With three million copies in print in twenty-eight languages, The New Lion Handbook to the Bible has earned an outstanding reputation as the most helpful and accessible guide to the world’s all-time bestseller: ‘the best book to have next to the Bible’. Now the Handbook has been revised and redesigned in every detail – text, photographs, illustrations, maps and charts – and expanded by over a hundred pages, taking full account of the major advance in biblical studies since the book first appeared. The new book also has over a hundred special articles by leading scholars from around the world, including character studies of important biblical figures and advice on how to approach the different kinds of writings – story, poetry, prophecy, history, wisdom, apocalyptic – that appear in the Old and New Testaments. All the revisions have been carried out with the needs and interests of a new generation of readers clearly in mind, and written by those who have discovered the riches of the Bible themselves and want to share them with others.
