Charts/Graphs/Maps
Below are some of the charts, graphs, and maps that appear on various pages and posts that you might find useful to download your own copy for reference purposes.
Visual history of the kings of Israel – The kingdom was only unified under three kings, and the kings that the Old Testament references after the split into two kingdoms can be quite confusing. This handy chart will help you visualize which king you are reading about and approximately when they lived.
Charting the Prophets – When and where did each prophet minister? When studying Old Testament prophets, it’s important to know what kings they interacted with and the state of the people they were prophesying to.
Dig Deeper Research
Occasionally a Burning Bush study contains an optional Dig Deeper section. We encourage you to work through these on your own, but if you don’t have time or want to compare your results to ours, have at it! Note that there is not always a right/wrong way to do this. You very well might have insights that our team missed. If so, we’d love to hear about it.

What became of the boy king Joash? – Often confused with the other boy king, Josiah, Joash started off well, but had a very different ending. This group study blog on his grandmother, Queen Athaliah, describes his tumultuous beginning: Meanest women of the Bible – Marriage, Mayhem, and Murder.
Jesus’ I AM Metaphors in John – In the book of John, Jesus uses seven different metaphors to describe himself, all beginning with the words “I Am.” This chart lists these metaphors and describes why Jesus used them.
