The Bible Unearthed

Israel Finkelstein and historian Neil Silberman compare the discoveries made by archaeology with biblical texts to test the historical veracity of the Old Testament; the foundation text of the three main monotheistic religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Some of their findings challenge both the original biblical stories and the scope of 'biblical archaeology' that prevailed from the 19th century to the 1930s.
