This book is a brief, popular (but informed and up-to-date)
introduction to the relationship between the Bible and archaeology.
Material culture (i.e., artifacts) and the biblical text illuminate
each other in various ways, but many of us find it difficult to
reach a nuanced understanding of how this process works and how
archaeological discoveries should be interpreted. This book
provides an irenic and balanced perspective on these issues,
showing how texts and artifacts are in a fascinating "dialogue"
with one another that sheds light on the meaning and importance of
both. What emerges is a rich and complex picture that enlivens our
understanding of the Bible's message, increases our appreciation
for the historical and cultural contexts in which it was written,
and helps us be realistic about the limits of our knowledge.
