Welcome to Litsy!

If you re reading the Bible without these four specific lenses, you re missing the point of what you read. To get the full benefit, you need to understand (1) spatial and geographical features that shape the text, (2) the history of the Jewish people, (3) the Israelite and Greco-Roman cultures, and (4) the religious beliefs of the ancient writers. The message of the Bible is embedded within the cultural world of the Bible. As Marc Turnage takes you on a virtual tour of the Holy Lands, you ll see Bible events in a fresh new way. You ll be amazed and encouraged as characters and actions bring new insight to the oldest book on your shelf."
