Archaeology and the Bible

Meer over het boek

The Bible is not only a religious text but also a valuable historical document that sheds light on the customs, beliefs, and practices of ancient cultures. In this authoritative volume, George Aaron Barton, an archaeologist and theologian, explores the relationship between archaeology and the Bible. He provides an overview of archaeological methods and theories and examines the biblical accounts of such events as the Exodus, the conquest of Canaan, and the Babylonian exile. Barton's lucid and balanced approach makes this book an indispensable resource for anyone interested in the intersection of religion and history.
