Description
This volume examines developments in archaeological finds in the Near East, particularly Palestine, that are related to the Bible. Newer field methodologies, regional surveys and creative syntheses have all had an impact on traditional approaches to looking at these discoveries. John Laughlin examines these developments and discusses what they imply for biblical studies.
ReviewsThis pithy overview of Near Eastern archaeology will be especially helpful to beginning students... Laughlin summarizes the development of Near Eastern archaeology from its origin as a means of proving the Bible... is a good starting point for anyone who is interested in reading more about the intersection of science and faith.
