About the Interactive Bible Map
Journey Through the Lands of the Bible
What is the Interactive Bible Map?
The Interactive Bible Map is a powerful visual tool designed to bring the geography of the Scriptures to life. It’s one thing to read about places like Jerusalem, the Sea of Galilee, or the journey of the Apostle Paul; it’s another to see them on a modern map, understand their relationships to one another, and connect them to the biblical events that made them famous. Our map covers the entire biblical world, from the cradle of civilization in Genesis to the far reaches of the Roman Empire in Acts and Revelation.
How It Can Enhance Your Study
Visualize the Biblical World
Gain a better understanding of distances, trade routes, and the geographical context of biblical narratives. See how mountains, deserts, and seas shaped the lives and journeys of God's people.
Connect Events to Locations
Each pin on the map represents a significant location. Clicking on a pin reveals a summary of the location's importance and lists key biblical events that took place there, with direct scripture references.
Deepen Your Understanding
By connecting the biblical text to real-world geography, the stories you've read many times can take on new depth and meaning. The map serves as a visual commentary, enriching your personal Bible study, sermon preparation, or small group discussion.
A Note on Accuracy

This feature is for educational and informational purposes. We have used the best available archaeological and historical data to place these locations as accurately as possible. However, the exact coordinates of some ancient sites, particularly those from the earliest parts of the Bible, are subjects of ongoing scholarly debate. In such cases, we have placed the pin in the traditionally accepted or most likely region. Always use this map as a study aid to be supplemented by the biblical text itself.
