About Rebuilding Faith Journal

Walk the ground. Until now the places in Scripture were pins on a map. In this release they are somewhere you can go. HOW THEY ACTUALLY TRAVELLED Travel in the Bible is now routed over the surveyed Roman road network and costed against real terrain, so you get a walk rather than a ruler laid across a map: 17 miles from Jerusalem down to Jericho, over 4,000 feet of descent, about five to seven hours on foot. Where the journey went by sea it sails, following the coast the way ancient ships did, steering by landmark and putting in at night, so Paul's voyages bend around Cyprus instead of cutting through it. Press play on any leg to fly it at walking height, or drag along the elevation chart to put the camera anywhere on the climb. THE HOLY LAND, 1898-1946 Place pages now carry photographs of the actual ground, from the Matson Collection at the Library of Congress. Jerusalem, Capernaum, Damascus, Hebron and many more, photographed before the modern city arrived on top of them. THE CITIES STAND UP Excavated walls, gates, theatres and churches are drawn as real mass on the map, built from surveyed footprints. Move the Time Travel slider to the year you are reading about and anything built later drops away. HOW WELL WE KNOW IT Where a location is genuinely disputed, we say so. Tap the mark beside a place name to read why, and where the evidence is divided you get a second route rather than a footnote. PLACES AND PEOPLE Search now finds biblical places and people, offline, in their own tabs.
