Coles Out of Egypt I Called My Son: An Introduction to the Geography of Jesus' Biblical World at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Out of Egypt I Called My Son invites readers to reconsider the geography of the biblical world with clarity and historical grounding. This introduction explores the lands associated with the life of Jesus—Egypt, Judea, and Galilee—not as distant or disconnected regions, but as part of a continuous landscape experienced through travel, migration, and daily life.
Drawing on widely accepted historical and geographic knowledge, this work examines how people in the ancient world moved along established overland routes connecting neighboring lands. It highlights Bethlehem's proximity to Egypt, the movement patterns reflected in Scripture, and the fact that these journeys were part of a shared geographic environment.
It also addresses how modern systems of geography and mapmaking—particularly those shaped in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries—have influenced how these lands are perceived today. It shows how later classifications can make the land appear separate, even though it was once connected.
This introduction does not seek to rewrite Scripture, but to restore geographic clarity, helping readers see the biblical narrative within its original setting. By understanding the land more clearly, readers are invited to engage with the text more deeply and with greater awareness of the world in which it unfolded.
