This is my detailed, large-scale map of Southern Israel showing the journey of Samson during the early part of his life. This map “zooms in” to better show the area where Samson lived & went at this time in his life. I have added little numbered notes to the map, to highlight significant events in Samson’s life.
I decided to use similar colours to represent height above sea level (& below it, in the case of the Jordan/Arabah valley!) that I have used in other maps. I have also added brown terrain lines to try to indicate mountains & hills, upland areas, slopes, etc.
Date
The period of the Judges was from about 1,380 B.C. to about 1,045 B.C. Samson was a Judge from 1,154 B.C. to 1,124 B.C.
Notice the figures on the border of the map.
If you look carefully at the map border you will see I have included some little black and white figures, just for fun! I drew the lion, Ostrich, Golden Jackal & Boat specifically for the Samson maps.
