FAQ's regarding Virtual Tours

Why take a virtual tour?

Being directed to stay-in-place can have many complications beyond having enough food and supplies for a few weeks. However, during this difficult time, many mental health experts recommend getting a little culture, education and even spiritual encouragement while confined to your home. How so?

Well, you can enjoy a Bible tour from the privacy of your home! Yes, Museum Bible Tours is now offering virtual Bible tours! How will these tours work?

Using Zoom MBT tour guides "walk-through" the museums with viewers in tow using cutting edge technology to show and provide commentary on specific art pieces related to the Bible.

Are the tours live or will I be watching a video?

The tours are done live just like a tour in a museum would be conducted! This allows our guests to have real-time interaction with the Tour Guide and to even ask questions at given moments on the tour. As they are live, you'll have a more enjoyable experience viewing the tour from a device which will allow you to interact (chat, voice and/or video camera).

What is the best way to view / take the tour?

Zoom is the platform that is used for these virtual tours. This application is free and available on many different devices. However, the best possible experience will be had on a laptop, desktop computer or a tablet with ample viewing room. You can watch from a TV, but that would prevent you from interacting as the tours are live.

How many can take the tour at once?

Up to 95 devices may be connected for a single tour. Please limit viewers on your device to 4 to 6 People per-invitation! Our reservation system is designed to control the amount of reservations that can be made.

After I reserve a tour, what can I expect?

After you reserve your tour, you will get an email from the website as a confirmation (if you do not see this, please check your spam or junk folder). You will not receive anything thereafter until a day or so before the tour date.

When you get the email with your Zoom meeting link, you will need to click on the provided link to open the tour in Zoom. While it's true that it is possible to have more devices connected at a time, a single tour guide will only be able to give meaningful attention to 95.

When should I check-in for my tour?

It is suggested that you join the Zoom meeting 10 or more minutes before it is scheduled to start. This ensures that there are no connection problems, that your name is properly displayed and that any other additional technical issues are resolved before the tour.

What items should I have on hand?

Your Bible (optional)
Note-taking materials (optional)

Recording the tour is prohibited.

What if I want a tour for my congregation / family / group?

If you want a private tour or a group tour using several devices please contact us! We'll be happy to set up a tour time just for you.

Moving standing reservations from one tour to another is NOT permitted. That is to say, from "The Wheat and the Weeds" to "Your Word Is Truth". If your circumstances require that you move your reservation to another date for the same tour, MBT will be happy to help.

Virtual tours purchased are non-refundable. You can however, reschedule for the same tour if your circumstances require you to do so.

About the tour: In this tour you will learn why the answer to the question “Who is Like the Sovereign Lord?” is important. We will dive through history to examine how Jehovah proves his divine right as Sovereign through his prophesies, his power, and how he protects his people. By the end of this tour, you will be faith strengthen as you confidently say, no one is like our Sovereign Lord!

Questions that will be answered?

How did Jehovah humiliate the God’s of Egypt?
In what ways has Jehovah used his power to protect his people throughout history?
What attitudes and influences did the first century Christians have to contend with and how did Jehovah care for his people’s spiritual needs?

Shabti Doll: An indicator of the Egyptians obsession with the afterlife is the Shabti doll. When Egyptians died, they would have their slaves buried with them. Eventually, they were running out of slaves, so they came up with this solution.

Ramses II: It is held that cities of Pithom and Raamses were built during the reign of Ramses II (of the “Nineteenth Dynasty”. In Archaeology and the Old Testament (p. 149) Merrill Unger comments: “But in the light of Raamses II’s notorious practice of taking credit for achievements accomplished by his predecessors, these sites were most certainly merely rebuilt or enlarged by him.’”

Ibis Sculpture: This unusually large ibis has elegant proportions and animation. He strides forth on long, powerful legs of cast bronze. His sharp-clawed feet and curved beak create an impression of strength and purpose. The cult of Thoth was especially popular in late Egyptian dynasties, leading to the creation of exceptional statues and amulets.
