  Give an example from the Bible, other than the ones used in this lesson, that demonstrates the biblical authors use of geography to convey biblical wisdom.

  In the book of John’s first chapter, John the Baptist is preaching and baptizing in the wilderness and then in Bethany east of the Jordan River, baptizing people in the water there, when Jesus appears for baptism. Afterwards, God used a dove to rest the Holy Spirit upon His Son.

  I am reading through Genesis & Exodus now & it is filled with geography! The lands promised to Abraham & defendants. Travels to find brides for Issac and Jacob! Moses and his story with pharaoh and the Israelites leaving Egypt. So full of geography!

  Psalm 139 depicts perfectly the three categories of Geography Such as Physical, Human and Natural History.
  O Lord, you have searched me and known me!
  2 You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
  you discern my thoughts from afar.
  3 You search out my path and my lying down
  and are acquainted with all my ways.
  4 Even before a word is on my tongue,
  behold, O Lord, you know it altogether.
  5 You hem me in, behind and before,
  and lay your hand upon me.
  6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
  it is high; I cannot attain it.

  7 Where shall I go from your Spirit?
  Or where shall I flee from your presence?
  8 If I ascend to heaven, you are there!
  If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there!
  9 If I take the wings of the morning
  and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
  10 even there your hand shall lead me,
  and your right hand shall hold me.
  11 If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me,
  and the light about me be night,”
  12 even the darkness is not dark to you;
  the night is bright as the day,
  for darkness is as light with you.

  13 For you formed my inward parts;
  you knitted me together in my mother’s womb.
  14 I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.[a]
  Wonderful are your works;
  my soul knows it very well.
  15 My frame was not hidden from you,
  when I was being made in secret,
  intricately woven in the depths of the earth.
  16 Your eyes saw my unformed substance;
  in your book were written, every one of them,
  the days that were formed for me,
  when as yet there was none of them.

  17 How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!
  How vast is the sum of them!
  18 If I would count them, they are more than the sand.
  I awake, and I am still with you.

  God reveals His work in the Bible on the stage of geography. A number of people appeared in geography. In Genesis, Abraham was sent to Egypt as Canaan. In the New Testament, we encounter numerous geography in the life of Jesus and the missionary journeys of the apostle Paul.
