Biblical archaeology has long been a discipline in crisis.
"Biblical minimalists," who believe that the Bible contains little
of actual historical fact, today are challenging those who accept
the historicity of Scripture. In this volume Jewish and evangelical
Christian archaeologists, historians, and biblical scholars
confront the minimalist critique and offer positive alternatives.
Bringing a needed scientific approach to biblical archaeology,
the contributors construct a new paradigm that reads the Bible
critically but sympathetically. Their work covers the full range of
subjects relevant to understanding the context of the Bible,
including proper approaches to scriptural interpretation, recent
archaeological evidence, and new studies of Near Eastern texts and
inscriptions.
