The Bible and Christianity Timeline Book reveals 6,000 years of history, from Adam to the present day! This 20-foot (6 m) fold-out timeline includes hundreds of historical facts, key figures, and important dates from the Bible and the history of Christianity, along with major events and protagonists from world history and the Middle East. This publication, which includes dozens of colorful illustrations and photographs, can be read as a book or unfolded from its binding to be displayed on a wall in a classroom or home.
This uniquely organized historical overview reveals the events of Christian history in parallel with contemporary events in world history. It is easy to see how biblical history relates to events that occurred simultaneously throughout the Middle East and around the world. For example:
The first Olympic games in history were held during the time of the prophet Jonah (776 BC)
Mount Vesuvius erupted and buried the city of Pompeii during the time of the apostle John,
The Greek historian Plutarch was born in 46 AD, the same year that followers of Christ were first called "Christians" in Antioch
The Huns invaded Europe in 360 AD, the same year that books replaced scrolls
This indispensable Bible study tool makes an excellent addition to the resource library of any church, Christian school, or home classroom.
