"It's not if you come to IBEX, it's when." - Dr. William Varner
The Master's College Israel Bible
Extension program was founded in 1995 as a semester-abroad, in-depth study of
the Scripture based on experiencing the land, culture, and language of the
Bible first hand. Students are afforded the opportunity to live, travel, and
study in the land for three months, where the combination of study and hands-on
experience is unequalled. Doug Bookman, co-founder of the IBEX program, has
been known to comment, "Everyone has an impression of the land of the
Bible before they come. Their impression is wrong."
