The Hebrew Bible in Pictures aims to connect each carefully selected image with specific Biblical texts and thus to illuminate the Biblical text via the archaeological record. Almost every book of the Hebrew Bible is represented by at least one image that is cross-referenced in the unique Scripture Index, useful for easily customized slide presentations.
