Bible maps make the Bible clearer

The Casual English Bible® maps tell Bible stories in a captivating way that engages even people who have never read the Bible. Lavishly detailed maps only make the stories of Jesus and others more compelling and easier to picture and to understand.

These 3D-style maps of Bible lands are created from blended high resolution satellite images, matched to precise elevation data from international space agencies.

How to search for maps

—Type “Galilee” into the Casual English Bible’s map search engine, below. Instantly, you’ll see dozens of beautiful maps…many in 3D style. Each one tracks with a different Bible story. These aren’t generic maps with a hundred place names.
—Type “Samson” into the Bible map search engine. You’ll see the tiny village where he lived in the Judean foothills below Jerusalem.
—Type “Corinthians” and you’ll see a gallery full of maps associated with Paul’s letters of 1, 2 Corinthians, to the church in Corinth, Greece.

3D sense of the lay of the land

Get a feel for the lay of the land:

—Ararat Mountains, where Noah’s boat ran aground. The Bible doesn’t say it was Mount Ararat.
—Judean hills where Joshua and the Israelites found most of their battles for the Promised Land. They avoided the plains, where their enemies with armored chariots had the advantage over Israel’s foot soldiers.
—Jesus’ 20-mile climb from Jericho and the Jordan River Valley upward half a mile high, to the crest of the Mount of Olives, overlooking Jerusalem.
—One surprise for some readers is the Jesus Triangle, a plug of ground between three cities. It’s where Jesus spent most of his ministry time. A person can walk that entire triangle in a single day. Type “Jesus triangle” to see it.

"Rules the Jews observed are now obsolete" (Ephesians 2:15). "God called this a new agreement. It replaced the old agreement, which became obsolete and is already on the verge of disappearing" (Hebrews 8:13).

Paul's second mission trip

Over about 3 three years, Paul and his associated traveled about 2,700 miles (4,345 km). This was Paul's second mission trip. It started around AD 49. The Bible records Paul's travels in Acts chapter 15 to 18.

The trip begins

The journey began with Paul wanting to revisit churches he had established on his first mission trip. He review the good news about Jesus with others. He chose Silas, a prophet and leader in the church, to join him on his trip. The two traveled throughout what is now Turkey, visiting churches and sharing the word of God. They even encountered some divinely orchestrated roadblocks, such as when they were prevented from entering certain areas by the Holy Spirit. Despite these setbacks, the two pressed on and eventually made their way to Philippi, where they met a wealthy businesswoman named Lydia. She was so moved by their message that she and her household became the first Christians in Europe.

Paul gets beaten and thrown in prison

However, not everyone was welcoming to Paul's message. He and Silas were later arrested and beaten after casting out a spirit from a fortune-telling servant. Despite being jailed, their faith remained strong, and they sang hymns, which ultimately led to their release. From there, the two traveled to Thessalonica, where they established a thriving church, but they also faced persecution from those who were against their teachings. They then traveled to Berea, where they were welcomed with open arms, but again, opposition arose, and they were forced to leave. After leaving Berea, Paul traveled alone to Athens, where he famously preached on the Areopagus, the center of cultural and intellectual activity. His message about the "unknown God" sparked interest, and some even became believers.

Starting the church in Greece

The journey ended in Corinth. That's where Paul established a church that would become one of the most influential in the early Christian world. There were many challenges on this trip. But Paul managed to spread the message of Jesus throughout Greece and Turkey. He started several thriving Christian communities. For other Bible versions, see Bible Gateway.
