After 29 years of in-depth bible study and six years of
lecturing on books of the bible I have used many resources to assimilate information
for Old Testament history. This PowerPoint presentation of the Twelve Tribes of
Israel is one of the most detailed studies that I have ever encountered. My study and teaching of the gospels gave me
knowledge of the tribe and lineage Jesus Christ, a descendant of Israel’s tribe
of Judah. I really appreciate the detailed timeline from chronicling the years
from the God’s call of Abram 2080 BC
until the rebuilding of the temple 515 BC. The timeline requires five slides to
display all the details and also is
available in a black and white printable resource. Each tribe has from 8 to 16 color
coded slides with is the map for each tribe showing their placement in the
Promise Land. As I prepare slideshows for the two classes I teach each week, it
is very difficult to find detailed maps made to fit PPT. Not only are the
slides colorful but they are very detailed with cities and regions and water
features. This in itself is an awesome resource. Another key element is the 23 slides
with the general information about the Israel’s history from Jacob encounter
with angel of God through the fulfillment of Abraham’s promise in the Book of
Revelation. A chart shows the birth order and the mother of each son, their
symbol, and their placement around the tabernacle in the desert, as well as the
color and stone on the breastplate of the High Priest. There are enough slides
to produce a good study of each tribe. The tribe of Levi and the tribe of Judah
are especially detailed. Colorful pictures of the Tabernacle and some well
known figures along with black and white sketches add greatly to the PPT. This
resource was give to me by Rose Publishing for my honest review.
