Objective of Biblical Geography.

Careful study of the historical geography of biblical lands is important
For two reasons:

1. These regions have had an immense influence on our world
occid
in that. Not only in details like the alphabet, metallurgy, astronomy,
medicine, etc. ... but more fundamentally on the heritage of the Jewish religion
Christian.
2. The study of geography is necessary for the understanding of the Bible.
The elements necessary for the study of geography are:

- The biblical map. It is an enumeration of cities not in logical or alphabetical order, but territorial. The origins of the biblical map can be placed in ancient Egypt since it is in this empire where we have some relations of Palestinian cities, written on ceramic fragments, clay tablets and on the walls of monumental buildings.

- The Amarna tablets. They are brick-type ceramics. In 1900 BC Certain names of Canaanite cities were written in ceramic on some vessels that were destined to be broken. The message was written that after reading it was broken. Fragments found around 1930 north of Palestine and Mesopotamia have survived.
- The ostracas are pieces of pottery, jars where some text was written.
- In Muros some drawing or writing was put, especially in the entrances.
- Stellas are stone or ceramic tablets where important writings were placed.
- Texts of execration are figurines with writings (curse texts in general).
- City lists. The OT offers us some of these lists, which present us with an authentic biblical geography since they express biblical categories in the same terms (Gen. 10; Jos 13,21; II Chron 11: 6-10).
- Lists of the Prophetic Corpus. Amos 1 distributes the nations geographically. Acts 3 mentions the participants and their cities. Other sources mediate between the OT and us: extra-biblical classical historians: Herodotus, Pliny, Strabon, and Ptolemy. The most important works that the ancient Palestinian topography presents to us is the "Onomasticon" by Eusebius Esbita in 330 BC.
- Structured maps. The Madaba mosaic from AD 600 on the floor of an orthodox church in the transjordan. It is still preserved but incomplete. The Petingerian tabula is a world map of rivers of communication reduced to a strip of 8 meters. long by 33 cms. wide, divided into 12 sections. The original could be from the s. III AD, while the copy that has come down to us is from 1225 AD. which is conserved in the National Library of Vienna.
