Confessions of a Liberal Puritan

Here's a website I discovered when I was trying to find some parallel timelines for a local bishop last year (he wanted to be able to tell the students in his Sunday School class what was happening elsewhere in the world while David was king of Israel or while Elijah and Elisha were doing their prophetic gig).

I'm posting the following links for my students, as well (it's now five men and one woman, having gained a gal and lost a guy since Wednesday night), just 'cause I think it's neat and colorful . . . though I'd recommend they trust the Wikipedia article on Constantine I, rather than the little linked text from this site, and Wikipedia's Jewish Diaspora article would be infinitely preferable to the blurb linked to from the site below, which seems very misleading, totally ignoring the pre-Roman Diaspora in the dispersion of Jews throughout the Mediterranean world even before 70 C.E..

( PARALLEL TIMELINES IN WORLD HISTORY links )

For all its many flaws and oversights, I still think this site is pretty 'neat', for provding at least a starting place for students who're trying to get a sense of what was going on in the world at various points in recent history.
