Discovering the Old Testament, Part 12
What does the science of archaeology tell us about the past, especially the world of the Bible? In this episode we will learn about the basic problems facing the archaeologist, its essential assumptions, and what archaeology can and cannot do when it comes to addressing sacred texts. All told, while archaeology confirms some aspects of the Bible, others remain unproven or flatly contradicted. But matters of faith aside, the archaeologist’s findings breathe new life into the Bible by showing us the nature and complexity of its world.
