In the past, I was discouraged to enter those websites, since I was drawn back from people that approach knowledge from the perspective of truth. Means that when I come to study the bible I want to discover what the truth is. The religious approach presents the truth and teaches us the bible in real light.

Today, as a grown up individual I really like these kind of sites. The religious enthusiasm that approaches the things on a spiritual level makes these sites an asset. As in any thing, things need to be correlated with different information, but surely there is valuable information at least to challenge the learner to find the correct information. One of those sites is biblestudy.org – a site with many articles that focus on the new testimony bible.

When I was 10 years old I was acquainted with my first Bible Atlas, which was the Carta Bible Atlas. I remember taking this thick and heavy book off my grandpa’s bookshelf, there were so many sketches, drawings, maps, and the truth is that I couldn’t understand anything then, but at the same time I couldn’t take my eyes off it.

When my Grandpa entered the room, and found me browsing confusingly through the pages and sketches, he sat next to me and tried to help organizing the mess a bit. He taught me how to read a map, and made connection between the old bible stories and reality “here is where David came from”, he declared when viewing the Ayalon Valley’s map “Do you see Ur of the Chaldees? This little red dot, here is where Abraham came from”, he had whispered secretly, and something awaken inside of me. As a child I was always in love with Bible stories, but only at my Grandpa’s old apartment, with the Atlas placed on my laps, this love became an endless curiosity and excitement.
