THE BIBLE AS HISTORY

by Werner Keller ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A

This adds a new chapter to material on the findings of archaeology by approaching the subject with the purpose of determining whether discoveries have substantiated history as presented in the Old and New Testaments. It's exciting reading as stories familiar since childhood take on stature with visible evidence that has been unearthed. Much that seemed symbolical or mythological is proved factual as episode by episode, biblical history is examined in the light of modern knowledge. Further chapters explore the creation story and the importance of the Dead Sea Scrolls brings the whole down to the moment... From an immense success in Germany, this should find a wide market here.
