Egypt and Syria: Their Physical Features in Relation to Bible History is a book written by John William Dawson in 1885. The book is a comprehensive study of the physical geography, geology, and climate of Egypt and Syria, and how these factors influenced the history of the region as described in the Bible. Dawson’s book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on Egypt and the second part on Syria. Each section is further divided into chapters that explore various aspects of the region’s physical geography, including its topography, climate, and natural resources. Dawson uses his knowledge of geology and geography to provide detailed descriptions of the land, rivers, mountains, and other physical features of the region, and how these features shaped the history of the people who lived there.Throughout the book, Dawson draws on his knowledge of the Bible to connect the physical features of the region to the events described in the Bible. He examines the role of the Nile River in shaping the development of Egyptian civilization, and how the desert landscape of Sinai influenced the journey of the Israelites during the Exodus. He also explores the impact of the Mediterranean Sea on the development of the Phoenician civilization, and how the mountains of Lebanon provided valuable natural resources that were used to build the Temple of Solomon.Overall, Egypt and Syria: Their Physical Features in Relation to Bible History is a fascinating study of the natural world and its impact on human history. Dawson’s detailed descriptions and insightful analysis make this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Middle East and the role of geography in shaping human civilization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
