Archaeology's Challenge To Faith

Archaeology's Challenge To Faith
A nice little site which contains a link to a free e-version of Israel Finkelstein's "The Forgotten Kingdom" as well as an hour and a half re-cap of The Bible Unearthed.

Quote:Israel Finkelstein shows how recent archaeological discoveries will challenge our previous understanding of the history of events referred to in the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament). These are radical challenges to what most Christians and Jews have assumed to be the facts on which their faiths are based. The entire book, The Forgotten Kingdom, has generously been placed online here:

This relates to my puzzlement when visiting the British Museum last year as to why there are no Egyptian records referring to Moses. But Finkelstein’s evidence discloses many more surprises.
And here is an excellent video summarizing some of the archaeological and textual evidence that challenges history as related by the Old Testament. Controversial? Yes. But watch this and then look at the additional scholarly sources, both critical and supportive.


Both are well done nails in the coffin of bible bullshit.
