This annotated list of organizations and ministries might be of value one way or another to students of the Scriptures.
The endorsement of an organization or ministry does not necessarily mean that we agree with all of its beliefs, practices, or ideas. All of them we think have value in themselves in that they contribute to the knowledge of and welfare of the Land, the People, and the Scriptures of Israel. None of these groups have asked us to list them. We do it merely as a service to our Bible students.

Ritmeyer Archaeological Design – Leen and Kathleen Ritmeyer
How did the temple look like? Or, where was the ark of the covenant located before David brought it to the city of David? Or …. etc.
Ritmeyer, being an architect, used his skils to visualize the events, locations and buildings recorded in Scripture. His input was also used for a compilation video Herod’s Temple Mount. The video can be seen here on YouTube. All those visualizations help to increase our understanding immeasurably. ritmeyer.com/
