The second part to Bonar’s travelogue of his journey to the far east, The Land of Promise describes his travels from Beersheba to the lands of Palestine. Written in journal form, these exciting entries show “that Palestine bears to be often visited, and can afford to be spoken of for the hundredth time without yielding less to one that come after.”
In the Logos edition of The Land of Promise, all Scripture references link to original language texts and English Bible translations in your digital library and display on mouseover. Logos’ advanced tools make this resource the most useful edition for sermon preparation, theological research, and historical study.
This volume narrates the author’s journey from the southern part of Judea, skirting the desert, to Hebron, Jerusalem, the Dead Sea, the Sea of Galilee, the sources of the Jordan, and finally the cities on the Mediterranean coast from Sidon to Jaffa. The story is vivacious, the description of scenery graphic.
