Summary, etc |
This title considers archaeological evidence to shed light on how the Bible came into existence. It argues that the Bible was created by the people of the nation of Judah in a last-ditch attempt to keep their religion alive after the demise of the larger, wealthier nation of Israel to the north. A fascinating reinterpretation of the political reality, as revealed through archaeology, which lies behind the creation of this sacred text. |
