Overview
Have you ever wandered through a huge museum wondering what you should be seeing, or perhaps feeling like you're missing out on something? Do you want to make the Bible come alive in a life-changing way?
In this semi-private guided tour, you'll stand in front of ancient artifacts while discussing the Bible.
You will get to connect Bible passages to the artifacts, then place it in a timeline so that you will understand the Bible like never before. Verses will no longer just be words on the page when you see an artifact from that same time period bring the passage to life. As you place each event on the timeline, you will understand how they relate to each other in history.
Encounter 40-ton Assyrian statues, Egyptian pharaohs, Roman emperors and more. The artifacts range in age from 2000 - 3500 years old.
The tour covers Mesopotamia, Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome.
What's Included
- Optional portable folding stools
- Google Doc of study notes including a comprehensive list of Bible verses related to the artifacts

What To Expect
The British Museum
We start with the Assyrian, Egyptian and Greek galleries on the ground floor. We'll see 40-ton Assyrian lamassu beasts, statues of famous pharaohs and the Parthenon temple sculptures of Athens. We elbow our way to the front of the famous Rosetta stone and talk about its importance to history. After a break, we go upstairs to see the Egyptian, Mesopotamian, Babylonian, Persian, Greek and Roman galleries as time allows and your preference dictates. We'll look at Roman emperors, Persian tableware and drinkware that Esther and Nehemiah would have been familiar with, Egyptian mummies and a game that Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph would have played. We'll examine some weights that Daniel may have had in mind when he interpreted the handwriting on the wall for King Belshazzar. Some of the Biblical people we'll discuss: Egypt: Joseph, Moses, Abraham; Assyria: Jonah, Ahab, Hezekiah; Babylon: Daniel; Persia: Queen Esther, Nehemiah; Rome: Jesus; Greek: Paul
