Natural History of the Bible

Mountains shape the Holy Land that lies along the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea. Two parallel ranges run from north to south and in between is the country's most extraordinary physical feature, the deep trench that holds the River Jordan, the Sea of Galilee and the Dead Sea, all part of what is still commonly called The Great Rift Valley.

Muntii modeleaza Tara Sfanta care se afla de-a lungul tarmului estic al Marii Mediterane. Doua intervale paralele se desfasoara de la nord la sud si intre ele este cea mai extraordinara caracteristica fizica a tarii, santul adanc care detine raul Iordan, Marea Galileii si Marea Moarta, toate facand parte din ceea ce se numeste inca Marea Valea Riftului.
