Three professors from The Baptist College of Florida (BCF) in Graceville contributed to the Christian Standard Bible (CSB) Holy Land Illustrated Bible released by Lifeway Publishers of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) in September 2020.
The CSB Holy Land Illustrated Bible contains over 1,100 illustrations as well as 275 commentary articles originally published in the Biblical Illustrator quarterly magazine. A Doctor of Philosophy degree (PhD) was the general requirement for contributors. The content of the Biblical Illustrator highlighted archeology, history, and cultural background to enhance biblical understanding. Three BCF Professors have articles published in the new study Bible including former BCF Professor of Old Testament J.W. Lee authored "Enemies of Rebuilding Jerusalem," James Newell, Professor of Old Testament and Hebrew wrote "Sorcery, Witchcraft, and Divination," and Mark Rathel, Professor of Theology and Philosophy wrote "Temples in Corinth."
