Discover the World Behind God's Word
The Bible was lived before it was read. Behind every passage are real people, real places, real cultures, and real events. The more we understand their world, the more clearly we understand God's Word and its message for our lives today.
History does not replace Scripture—it illuminates it.
Understanding Scripture begins with understanding the world in which it was written.
