In 1915 George Adam Smith, a Scottish professor, published a large atlas of the Holy Land together with the cartographer John Bartholomew. The maps show the land from the time before Israel came, through the time of the judges, the kings and the exile, and on to the time of Jesus and Paul.
What can you see?
The landscape, with mountains, valleys, waters and roads, and how the borders and main cities changed. It helps you understand why Jerusalem lay where it did, and how far it was between places in a story.
How to use them
Open a map and zoom in with the mouse wheel, or pinch on mobile. The sharpest version loads in the background. Compare two periods to see what changed.
Remember
The maps are over a hundred years old, and scholars have since changed some of the placements. They are good for giving an impression of the land, not as the last word on where a place lay.
