From Ancient Civilizations to the time of Christ, this work
contains projects, quizzes, lessons and answer keys for grades 4 -
8.
This classical approach will help you see things like what was
going on in the world while Moses was busy leading the Israelites
and how God has orchestrated it all to bring about His complete
plan.
Where most ancient studies encompass only Egypt, Greece, and
Rome, The Mystery of History goes much farther. In
Volume I, chronological based stories from all
around the world are included. Beginning with the Garden
of Eden, stories will spread from Sumer and Babel to Troy,
Phoenicia, and Assyria. The study of early civilizations will
include King Wu of China and Asoka of India as well as King David,
Julius Caesar, and Xerxes of Persia. Even North America is
visited in this look at ancient peoples.
Above all, a favorite feature of Volume I is the weaving of
Bible history with world history. In reality, it is all world
history. But for most of us, history has not been taught this
way. It has not been integrated. In The Mystery of
History, major stories are retold from the Bible in the
order that they happened alongside significant world history events
and figures. As an example, each one of the Old Testament
prophets are given a biographical lesson near their contemporaries
in old world history.
More examples of interesting figures who lived just decades
apart include: Joshua and King Tut; Ruth and Helen of Troy;
Daniel and Aesop; Ezekiel and Buddha; and Nehemiah and
Socrates. Imagine lining up such amazing figures on one
master timeline! Imagine learning their stories
back to back in the order they happened! For most of us, it’s
an illuminating experience. A required resource is the Historical Atlas of the World from Rand McNally.
