About this product

Product Information

Since the 1970s, archaeologists have made great strides in recovering the lost world of the Old Testament. Experts understanding of ancient Israel and its neighbours, and Bible tales, have been changed by these discoveries. This book looks at how the Bible came into existence. The authors assert that Abraham, Isaac and jacob never existed, David and Soloman were merely Chieftans and not kings and the Exodus never happened. They claim, through archaeological evidence, that the Bible was created by the people from the southern nation of Judah, in a last ditch attempt to keep their faith alive.

Oh my goodness! I received my Bible today. I am so impressed and pleased. It is listed as a used Bible. It is like new! I can’t find the first marking. Meissner Library, you are awesome. Thank you so much for delivering such a gem. Communication was great and the Bible arrived with no damage to the packing or Bible. Will definitely recommend them!

BUYER BEWARE!!! This seller isn't reputable. I bought a book for $21.91 listed as the last one, paid immediately but the book was never shipped. After several emails requesting the book with no response, I finally got an email back stating that my order was being refunded. Their bogus reason was that there was an issue with my shipping address. Now they have the same book also listed as the last at $720.84. Could this be my book? From their negative feedback I'd say they have a habit of this.

eBay should restrict this seller. If you’re reading reviews prior to a purchase, I strongly suggest you shop elsewhere. I eagerly bought a book prior to reading seller reviews and encountered the same experience as others. The book never shipped and was ultimately cancelled and refunded with the reason given being “issue with buyer’s address”, which was totally false. Then the book was re-listed at a higher price. Ultimately this experience was a total waste of time and energy.

  • The bible unearthed

    Very good book. Gave the stories from the bible and then looked at the same time periods according to archeology. Showed how the bible was not always accurate to the evidence.

  • Interesting...but different...

    Finkelstein and Silberman have both been featured on a number of History Channel and PBS documentaries...not because they are pro-bible or pro-Israel, but rather, because of the opposite. They beieve in a minimalist theory of the history of Israel. That is, there was no great and unified kingdom under Davis and Soloman. Rather just local chieftens with good storytellers and scribes. Interesting, but wrong. Archaeology is proving that there was a great united kingdom. Even the authors admit to the historicity of the existence of Israel.

  • Good "Bible" reference.

    From the quick look through I really enjoy it and recommend it.
