Connections you can check yourself
Moriah: the altar becomes the temple
Genesis 22:2 → 2 Chronicles 3:1 · In the text
The mountain where Abraham offered Isaac is named again as the site of Solomon's temple.
[Debated] Genesis names “the land of Moriah,” so whether it was precisely the same summit is debated. Jewish tradition and Josephus identify the two.
Joshua → Jesus: one name
Joshua 1:2 → Matthew 1:21 · History
Joshua and Jesus share the same Hebrew name, meaning “Yahweh saves.”
Temple rededicated → Jesus at the Feast of Dedication
1 Maccabees 4:59 → John 10:22 · History
The feast established in 1 Maccabees is the one Jesus attends in John 10.
Season 1: 63 Discoveries across nine eras
- Beginnings (Genesis 1–11): Creation, a garden, a broken trust, a flood and a tower. The opening chapters set up every question the rest of the Bible answers.
- The Family of Promise (Genesis 12–50): God makes a promise to one family: through them, every family on earth will be blessed. Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph.
- Out of Egypt (Exodus – Deuteronomy): Slaves are rescued, a mountain thunders, and God moves into a tent in the middle of the camp.
- The Land and the Judges (Joshua – Ruth): Israel enters the promised land and spirals through cycles of failure and rescue, with surprising heroes along the way.
- The Kingdom (1 Samuel – 2 Chronicles): Kings, a shepherd-poet, a temple on a mountain, a split nation and prophets who would not stay quiet.
- Prophets and Exile (Isaiah – Malachi): Empires rise, Jerusalem falls, and the prophets speak of a coming servant, a new covenant and a king like no other.
- Return and Waiting (Ezra – Esther, the Maccabees): Exiles come home, walls go up, and centuries pass under foreign empires while Israel waits.
- Jesus (Matthew – John): The threads of the whole story start to meet in one life, from Bethlehem to an empty tomb.
- The Early Church (Acts – Revelation): A small group in Jerusalem spreads across the Roman world, and the story ends where it began: in a garden.
