Biblical Backgrounds Of The Troubled Middle East

The Holy Land is unique and has a distinctiveness unlike that of any other place on earth. Christians, Arabs and Jews are deeply concerned about the Middle East, a land which has so long and so profoundly influenced the rest of the world. Guy N. Woods presents the details of ages-long conflicts in the Bible lands by:

• Noting the biblical origins of the people involved;
• Examining events essential to the understanding of present-day developments;
• Considering the claims to the land the Arabs and Jews allege;
• And examining political, geographical and social details contributing to an understanding of the ongoing problems in the Middle East.
