The current vendors of the Amazing Bible Timeline, Bill and Margaret Agard, claimed to have begun working with the original version of the informative timeline in 1975. Oddly enough, I could not find any information about who these original creators were as they are never sited on the map or on the vendor’s website. I applaud all of the people who worked on creating the original version of this timeline in 1931. And so I admit that I have been influenced in writing this blog post, just as the publishers of the Amazing Bible Timeline may have been influenced in creating their timeline. To some extent, this is true for everyone. It may not define my thinking, but it will influence it. So I will state for a fact before I go any further: I know that when I am exposed to another person’s thoughts, it INFLUENCES my thinking. I figure that you read my blog because you have come to either trust my free thoughts and feelings or are entertained by my attempts to resemble a successful blog. In this case however, I broke both of these rules because of a peculiar, and seemingly defensive, email that I received from the vendor of the Amazing Bible Timeline. As a rule, I do not even gather the opinions of the brilliant Hottie Hubby, as he can sometimes sway me with his persuasiveness. I earnestly try to develop original content with my own unique thoughts. When I write a review, I typically don’t read what my fellow Homeschool Crew members have written.
It allows you to see an overview of both world and Bible history in one place.
Instead of displaying this history on a traditional linear (straight) timeline, the poster provides an innovative and compact circular format.
The words and graphics provide a visual timeline that documents 6,000+ years of concurrent biblical and secular history. It was just a quiet “little” map with colorful features and an impressively large format (37” by 46”). I didn’t know this for the first month it sat tucked away in my coat closet. But, unbeknownst to me, it was also wrapped with no small amount of controversy. The Amazing Bible Timeline arrived in the mail packaged in a US Postal Service tube.
