Résumé : | Does archaeology ‘prove’ the Old Testament? Or does it ‘disprove’ it? For example, are the stories of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob historical facts or mere legends? In this booklet Alan Millard assesses the present state of knowledge in biblical archaeology. And he shows the proper relationship between the evidence from the ground and the truth of the Bible. Rightly interpreted, he argues, archaeology and the Bible can only enrich each other. |
