In this innovative guidebook Julie Baretz takes readers to twenty-one off-the-beaten-path locations in Israel where Bible stories are said to have happened. At each site she sets the scene by relating the historical context of the event, then follows with the biblical text itself and her own lively commentary. Captivating and complex Bible characters bring the locations to life as they face social, ethical, and spiritual dilemmas not unlike our own today. Baretz's narratives draw on history, archaeology, academic scholarship, and rabbinic literature for interpretations that enhance the meaning of the biblical events. Each story is told in the voice of Baretz as the tour guide--knowledgeable yet informal and friendly.
The Bible on Location traces the chronology and narrative arc of the historical books of Joshua, Judges, Ruth, 1 and 2 Samuel, 1 and 2 Kings, Ezra, and Nehemiah. The book begins with the Israelites' arrival in the land of Israel (following the exodus from Egypt and the forty years of wandering) and continues over more than six hundred years, until the return of the Jewish exiles from Babylon to their homeland.
Baretz's descriptions are accompanied by colorful maps and photographs that put actual and armchair visitors in the middle of the action. Each location reveals a new episode in the biblical narrative and provides inspiration and commentary that will enhance visits to the various sites.

Durable
Omg my dog loves this. The rubber is so durable my 2 yo aussie hasnt torn it up yet. I bought a cheap one from temu before and it took only 2 mins for my dog to tear it up it was complete waste of money. I love the football shape becahse it bounces unpredictably. I lile this to exhaust and exercise my aussie. This has become his favorite toy ever. It charges fast too. When im feeling lazy this is good way to exercise my dog and enrich him. I also teach him commands using this ball as his treat or reinforcement. Definitely worth every penny

The best toy for my dogs
I was looking for a toy that could keep my dogs entertained themselves for a long time because with the traditional balls they usually get bored quickly, But I’ve definitely loved this toy , I have two dogs of different sizes and they have a lot of fun playing with it, the ball bounces and makes sounds that really catch their attention, the quality ea great, even though they bite it , it hasn’t been damaged and it is easy to carry it. It's amazing

Didnt last.
Didnt even last a day. My dog is a 40 pound lab mix and figured out how to unscrew the toy within the first couple of hours. He then detroyed the plastic screw system on the inside.

Super fun toy!!
This is such a fun toy! My dog loves running after it. The shape is perfect for a medium sized dog . He isn't into the round balls, but this football shape is easier for him. I love the automatic movement because it don't have to contactly be throwing it.

Great toy
Color: Blue
Great toy, too bad my Shih Tzu is afraid of it. I love the way the movement is subtle and random.
