On Saturday night, we had a bit of snow and a lot of wind. Sunday morning, the snow was still on the street.

Molly led the scripture reading.

The science of cartography – making maps – developed extensively during the early modern period. Trade, colonial expansion, and piracy alike all benefitted from the increasing accuracy of maps and of the navigational tools used to read them and to plot routes. This interest is reflected in the maps of the Holy Land that we find in early modern Bibles. Readers wanted to locate important locations like Jerusalem and the Red Sea or to plot, for example, the route of Moses and the Jews into exile as described in Exodus.

This map from John Speed's book of biblical chronologies is similar to maps found in some copies of the Bishop's Bible. It includes a large amount of detail, including place names, positions of camps, armies, battles, and holy sites. In the bottom left hand corner we can see the Israelites crossing the Red Sea and the top left inset is a more detailed map of Jerusalem including Mount Calvary and the three crosses.
