As with any Zondervan product I've ever had this is a quality, beautifully made book. The maps are detailed and very nicely done. Binding and paper quality are excellent as is typical of Zondervan.

Details Details Details!!! The 3D maps and photographs are second to none. I have other Atlas's and they now gather dust. The author is well educated as you are taken through history and present times. I wish they had this on CD/DVD as well...

I am really enjoying reading this Atlas. I love the way it combines Bible History with where it happened. And, I very much appreciate how the author basically takes the Bible as written. Too often writers criticise the Bible account and it becomes a faith destroyer. I'm reading some every day and look forward to each reading session.

The maps were very detailed and helpful. The commentary
with each section was informative. I enjoyed the pictures accompanying the maps. I would recommend this atlas for quick reference and map studies.

The Zondervan Atlas of the Bible is a revised version of the Zondervan NIV Atlas of the Bible which came out in 1989. While the first edition contains 256 pages, the revised edition clocks in at 303 pages. A spot check of the written portions indicated that these remain basically the same with one notable exception. The new edition has added a section on the seven churches in Revelation (pp. 235–39). While the written portion in both volumes is very similar, many of the maps, diagrams, and pictures are either new or significantly improved. The revised edition is a more attractive volume. In my opinion, this fact alone provides sufficient reason to acquire the new edition. The cover advertises that the atlas comes with a free poster of New Testament Jerusalem. However, my review copy did not come with the poster (for whatever reason) and so I cannot evaluate it. But if the poster is similar to the graphics in the book, then I am sure it would be a nice bonus.
There are four features that I liked about the Zondervan Atlas of the Bible. First, as I have already noted, the maps, diagrams, and pictures are nicely done. Second, the written sections typically take conservative Evangelical positions on issues of history and dating (e.g., the early 1446 date for the Exodus). Third, the timelines at the beginning of each section provide the reader a helpful chronological orientation for the discussion and maps in the section. This is not an original feature, but it is one that I appreciated in the original edition as well. Fourth, the indices for Scripture references and persons helps to make the information in the atlas more accessible. Similarly this atlas includes a geographical dictionary and index. This too is helpful, but it can be a bit confusing since there is another section called a glossary. I would suggest combining these sections.
Unfortunately, there are three aspects of this volume that I am less enthusiastic about. First, the font size of the revised edition is noticeably smaller than the original. The smaller font may have been needed to provide more space for the additional maps, diagrams, and pictures. But I think that the smaller font makes this atlas a little harder to use. Secondly, an observation that I would make about other atlases as well is that I wish that there would be more discussion and explanation of how the realities of the geography of the Bible lands impacted the biblical events. Third, I really wish that all published atlases, including this one, would come with a CD or some other way to access the maps, diagrams, and pictures so that preachers and teachers could more easily and efficiently utilize the materials in presentations, lectures, or sermons. This would be much more helpful than providing the free poster noted above.
But these minor criticisms aside, I really like this atlas and it is probably the volume I would recommend for anyone who wants to get a solid and attractive atlas written from an Evangelical perspective.

Review 8 for Zondervan Atlas of the Bible
Overall Rating:
Date:July 27, 2010
This excellent Bible atlas was full of color photographs of the various regions so the reader could see what they look like (in modern times). There were also some pictures of the ruins of various cities. There were charts, timelines, &, of course, lots of maps. Most of the maps had a 3D look to show the relative elevation & also showed the locations of cities, rivers, & known ancient international & intra-national roads. The maps in the Historical section also showed the movement of troops or people during the events mentioned in the Bible.The first part covered elevation, cities, roads, & agricultural information (what the terrain was like, rainfall, & what crops were grown in the region) for the various regions in Canaan & relevant areas of Egypt, Sinai, & Mesopotamia. It also covered how the Biblical feasts aligned with the planting/harvesting cycle for various crops, the months, & the rainy/dry seasons. It explained how the geography influenced Biblical events, which was very enlightening. It made the Bible "come alive." The text was concise & easy to underst&.The second part went through the historical narrative of the Bible. Each historical section had a timeline at the start which showed Biblical events aligned with rulers in Syria/Mesopotamia & Egypt as well as what archaeological period it fell under.The text summarized the various Biblical events related to the maps & tied in archaeological findings (like if city remains were found for that time period or if archaeologists have uncovered non-Biblical records referring to those Biblical cities or kings). He also gave an international view of events by tying in information from Egypt & Mesopotamia records about various battles that affected Canaan/Israel as well.I'd recommend it to those who want a large set of maps for Biblical events & who would like to learn more about how geography influenced Biblical events.I received this book as a review copy from the publisher.
