Video Series Explores the Land of the Bible

Experiencing Israel through a program like the Israel Bible Extension (IBEX) Program at The Master’s University is an irreplaceable opportunity. But many people haven’t yet had the ability to visit the Holy Land in person. That’s why The Center for Thinking Biblically made a much-sought-after video course called “Land of the Bible” freely available last fall.

In these lectures, Dr. William Varner explains the historical background and events of the Bible while standing in the places where they happened, bringing key locations all over Israel right to users’ screens. Varner is a professor of biblical languages and Bible exposition at TMU and formerly was the director of the IBEX program. This video series follows him as he explains the topography of Jerusalem from inside the Old City walls and reads the Beatitudes on a mountainside above the Sea of Galilee. With more than 130 episodes and over 30 hours of content in these lectures, there’s plenty to learn about the historical and geographical context of Scripture.

The Land of the Bible lecture series, and many other series on an array of topics, can be found at thinkbiblically.org.
