6 Asian Countries Mentioned in the Bible 🌍 | Persia, Babylon, Assyria, Aram & More Did you know that many places mentioned in the Bible had very different names in ancient times? In this video, we compare Biblical countries and regions with their modern geographical locations: 🇮🇷 Persia → Modern Iran 🇮🇶 Babylon & Assyria → Modern Iraq 🇸🇾 Aram → Modern Syria 🇹🇷 Asia Minor → Modern Turkey 🇯🇴 Ammon, Moab & Edom → Parts of modern Jordan 🇮🇳 Hodu → India The Bible mentions places like Persia, Babylon, Assyria, Aram, Asia Minor and India, but these ancient territories do not always match today’s political borders exactly. For example, Esther 1:1 says that King Ahasuerus ruled over 127 provinces “from India to Cush,” showing the enormous geographical extent of the Persian Empire. (Bible Gateway⁠) This video is to explore the historical geography of the Bible and helps connect the ancient biblical world with the modern map. Bible References: Esther 1:1, Daniel 8:20, Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Revelation 2-3 If you love Bible history, Christian apologetics, biblical geography, archaeology, theology and Bible study, follow for more. The map has changed. The names have changed. But the biblical story happened in a real world with real places, real kingdoms and real history. @GOC #Viral #Reels #Shorts #FYP
