The Kingdoms of Israel & Judah

From the patriarchs to the return from exile. After Solomon, the kingdom split: the ten northern tribes (Israel) fell to Assyria in 722 BC; Judah in the south, keeping the line of David, endured until Babylon in 586 BC. Dates are approximate, following standard conservative chronology.

Prophecy · Daniel 2 & 7

Daniel's Four Kingdoms

In Nebuchadnezzar's dream (Daniel 2) a great image of four metals charts the empires that would rule until "the God of heaven sets up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed." Daniel's own vision of four beasts (Daniel 7) runs in parallel. History bore it out: Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and Rome.

(Dan 2:44–45)

Prophecy · Daniel 9:24–27

Daniel's Seventy Weeks

As Daniel prayed over Jeremiah's seventy years of exile, the angel Gabriel gave him a longer measure: seventy “sevens” — seventy weeks of years, 490 in all — decreed upon his people to bring in everlasting righteousness and to anoint the Most Holy. They unfold in three movements, and they run straight to the Messiah.

Conservative readings differ on the final “seven” — whether it runs on to the cross and AD 70, or is held future. The reckoning here follows the historic, Messiah-centered reading. Swipe to explore; tap any block to open the passage.

New Testament · The Gospels

The Life of Christ

From the manger in Bethlehem to the right hand of the Father — the earthly life of the Lord Jesus in six movements. Every station opens the Gospel passage where the scene is told. Dates follow a conservative harmony of the Gospels and are approximate.

New Testament · Acts 13–28

Paul's Missionary Journeys

From Antioch in Syria, the apostle Paul carried the gospel across Cyprus, Asia Minor, Greece, and at last to Rome itself — three journeys and a final voyage as a prisoner. This is a schematic map: cities sit in roughly their true positions so the routes read clearly, but it is a study aid, not survey cartography.

First Journey (Acts 13–14) Second Journey (Acts 15:36–18:22) Third Journey (Acts 18:23–21:17) Voyage to Rome (Acts 27–28)
