The Mountains of the Bible: Where God Came Down. An ancient forest at dawn with sunlight through natural arches.

The Mountains of the Bible

The Mountains of the Bible, Where God Came Down

Again and again God meets His people on mountains. The ark rests on Ararat, Abraham climbs Moriah, the law thunders from Sinai, fire falls on Carmel, the King is set on Zion. And in the Gospels the mountains keep their meaning: the sermon, the transfiguration, the agony on Olivet, the cross on Calvary. Each page below shows what happened on the mountain, and how it leads to Christ.
