This book was released on 1998 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume comprises studies in the fields of historical geography and historiography in biblical times. Both aspects contribute significant insights into scribal tradition and illuminate modes of literary composition. These are indispensible for any evaluation of the historical information embodied in the ancient compositions. The tangible data of territorial history promote the evaluation of the literary frameworks involved due to the conceptual terminology that may be perceived. Literary complexes and the interrelationship of text-groups may thus be defined by methods that are independent of literary criteria, yet contribute control elements to literary criticism. More than half of the book is new to the English reader, previously unpublished or translated from Hebrew and many papers partly revised.

In addition to discussing the physical geography, Kent delves into the historical context of the biblical narratives. He provides insights into the customs, cultures, and historical events that shaped the biblical world. This includes the ancient civilizations, such as Egypt, Babylon, and Assyria, which interacted with the Israelites and are crucial to understanding the broader historical context of the Bible. Kent's work also examines the cultural and religious aspects of biblical history, shedding light on the religious practices, traditions, and beliefs of the people mentioned in the Bible.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Historical Text Book and Atlas of Biblical Geography History without Geography is incomplete and unsatisfactory. The duty of the historian is, not only to record the events of his narrative, with their causes and consequences, but to sketch the attending scenes and circumstances, so as to present a clear and living picture of tho whole. For this purpose Geography comes to the aid of History, to delineate the scenery of the historical narrative, to describe the city or country where the event recorded transpired, to depict the mountain, plain, or valley, the ocean, sea, or river, the lake or fountain that blend in the surrounding landscape. Nothing so effectually aids us to call up from the tomb the figure of the past and reinvest it with its former lineaments, as these changeless features of nature. These alone give reality and life to the picture. More than all else they carry us back to live in the bygone days of history, and to become living actors in its stirring scenes. Zion is still beautiful for situation, as in the days of the Psalmist; the bills stand about Jerusalem now as they did when their picturesque beauties inspired the song of the royal hard. There is the Mount of Olives, and Mount Moriah, with the deep, silent valley below; and there is "Siloa's brook," still fresh and full, as when it flowed "fast by the oracle of God." The heights of Hebron, tho grazing-grounds and wells of Beersheba, are the same as when Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob tended there their flocks. Lebanon and Cannel, Tabor, Herraon and Eashan, the Lake of Galileo and its winding shores, arc clad still in all the varied beauties which held and charmed the eye of Jesus of Nazareth. These, contemplated in vivid mental conception, carry us back to walk with Jesus by tho silent, solemn shore of that lake, to commune in spirit with the sweet singer of Israel, and to converse with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob on the tented field. Thus History and Geography are inseparably associated together, and should ever be studied in connection. Each, by association, lends new interest to the other; and both are learned with more ease than either when studied separately. Read with careful reference to geographical and chronological data, locate in time as in history, and in apace as in geography, the events of the past, trace upon chart and map the shifting scenes of the narrative, and what was before insipid and profitless, becomes, liko the "expressive canvas" and the "speaking marble," instinct with life and spirit. What was crowded in confusion upon the mind, spreads out in distinct and beautiful perspective, leaving an impression clear and abiding as the landscape of the painter. History and Geography are by common consent considered indispensable branches of study in every primary school. Ancient history and classical geography occupy a large place in every liberal course of education, and why? only that, as names and places occur in conversation, reading, or public address, we may have some acquantance with their relative position and importance, together with the historical incidents With which they are associated. But the cities and sites of Scripture History come before us in reading, in conversation, and in the instructions of the pulpit, every day of our life, from childhood to hoary age, while we live in profound ignorance of them, and count it no reproach, no loss.
