I am excited to announce the release of the Photo Companion to Esther and the Photo Companion to Daniel. These books both lend themselves well to illustration, and yet acquiring relevant photographs is quite challenging for a number of reasons. Our team has been at work on these resources for more than a year, and we are very pleased with the results. Highlights of Esther include:

• The exact spots where Mordecai overheard the conspiracy, Ahasuerus sat on his throne, and Haman waited early in the morning
• Contemporary Persian reliefs depicting Ahasuerus, his officials, and his soldiers
• Plans and models of the city of Susa and its palace that bring the story to life

Highlights of Daniel include:

• Inscriptions, reliefs, and artifacts that shed light on the ancient Babylonian and Persian empires which Daniel served
• Ancient images of lions, beasts, and human statues that provide the context for Daniel’s persecution and his visions
• A march through Daniel 11, with images of nearly every king and queen prophesied by Daniel hundreds of years in advance

As always:

• Satisfaction is guaranteed
• Shipping in the US is free
• Immediate download of everything you order

Here’s one early endorsement for Esther:

“An amazing resource! The photographs and graphics included in this collection are not only beautiful, they’re also extremely helpful for visualizing the world of Esther and the events described in the book. The authors are to be commended for this remarkable volume.”
