The World of the Bible
The World of the Bible, published by Bayard Presse, is a 150-page quarterly review that offers a historical, archeological, and artistic approach to the biblical universe.

Established scholars, such as Thomas Römer, Daniel Marguerat, Marie-Françoise Baslez, Michel Quesnel, Simon Claude Minouni, Régis Burnet, Bertrand Lafond, François Brossier, and archeologist Estelle Villeneuve, preside over its editorial and scientific committee.
The review publishes English and French e-books in the fields mentioned above.
