Land of Benjamin

Another field study update. This time: Benjamin. Benjamin is pretty neat. We learned a lot about access points to highways and resources and how all of that stuff factors into larger political and theological motivations. Neat stuff. I usually don't do much with historical geography, so this is all pretty new to me. I like it, but not enough to study it intensely. It definitely illuminates Biblical happenings though.
