Places in Scripture
The story of the Bible is grounded in real places such as cities, deserts, mountains, rivers, and regions where God’s redemptive plan unfolded. These locations are far more than simple settings; they were chosen by God for covenant promises, prophetic messages, miraculous events, and the daily lives of His people. From the Garden of Eden to the streets of Jerusalem, each place helps illuminate the larger story of Scripture. As you explore these biblical places, you will gain deeper insight into the events that happened there, the people who walked those roads, and the theological significance that still echoes through each location today.
