Here are the stories that I have selected to create maps.
Not every Parsha has the stories as maps, because that was a later addition, but as the project progresses, I will be adding them, figuring out how to change the dates, so they are in the right order!
Parshat Vayera – The stories in the text
As seen in the previous post, there are many stories on this week’s Parsha. I have created smaller maps to explore and visualize them.
I have individual maps for each of the sub-stories that will be shared in a later post

Parsha Vayishlach – The stories in the text
Vayishlach: The Stories in the Text!
So much drama!
There is an abduction/r*pe.
And a massacre.

Dreams, ladders, divine beings and list of people… SO MANY PEOPLE!
And Amalek makes his first appearance!
Story of Judah and Tamar
