“Many years ago, as a graduate student in Jerusalem, Dan Noorlander taught historical geography to BYU Study Abroad students. He guided them on tours of the Holy Land from Mt. Hermon in the north to the Sinai desert in the south.
“Now retired, he has returned to Israel and hiked over two thousand miles to photograph the land in a way that visitors rarely see. Through dozens of photographs and custom-created maps combining Landsat-9 satellite images with terrain models, he tells the story of the Holy Land in meticulous detail. You’ll always know where you are in this Holy Land narrative, enjoying a simultaneously wide and intimate view of the terrain.
“As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Dan writes about Christ, His ministry in the Holy Land, and God’s plan of redemption and salvation, interweaving commentary from Church leaders about biblical sites and events.
“With this work and its accompanying website, BibleLandImages.com, Dan opens the door wide to everyone interested in the Holy Land, regardless of religious affiliation.”
Sample chapters and sections appear below, along with separate views of photos used in the book. The photos from all other chapters will appear in the future. Additional photos not used in the books will appear under Photo Menus (above). All selections are from my collection of over 45,000 unique photos.
