Bible Place Finder

This extension helps the user locate geographic places listed in the Bible and facilitates viewing them on a map.

It will search your current page for any geographic listing that appears in the Bible. Then it will make a list of what it finds.

You can then view the place on one of several Biblical maps or see the location on Google Maps.

If you are reading anything Bible related and just want a streamlined method for finding Bible places on a map, this extension is for you. It is useful if you are reading the Bible online, commentary, articles or anything Bible related in your Chrome browser.

The extension works by looking through relevant elements on the web page, looking at the text they contain and making a single long string of characters.

The program then looks through a known list geographic regions and checks to see if these names are found in the long string of characters. If these names are present they are added to the list of found locations in a drop-down list.
