About This Site

The Bible Mapper Blog exists to help people understand God’s Word better by helping them understand the world in which the Bible was written. Just as particular places today can carry significant, unspoken meaning for people (e.g., Normandy Beach, Hollywood, or the Bermuda Triangle), places in Scripture were often mentioned to evoke associations for readers that are not explicitly stated in the text. We hope you find this site to be a rich resource of maps and information that help you see this meaning and the message of Scripture with greater clarity than you have ever experienced before.

You are welcome to use these maps for any non-commercial purposes. The only requirement is that you cite biblemapper.com as the source of the map(s), and if you are including them in an online resource, provide a hyperlink back to biblemapper.com. For any commercial use, please contact us first at the contact information provided here: biblemapper.com/contact.html.
