Viac o knihe Biblical Archaelogy
This topic has
broad general appeal. Television documentaries about biblical
archaeology continue to be popular attracting high audience ratings.
Cline approaches the subject from a secular perspective which many other books on the topic do not.
Separate chapters deal with the Hebrew
Bible and New Testament, conveying the essential debates that
archaeologists continue to address.
Cline also discusses the issue of frauds and forgeries, and looks at the future of biblical archaeology.
Public
interest in biblical archaeology is at an all-time high, as television
documentaries pull in millions of viewers to watch shows on the Exodus,
the Ark of the Covenant, and the so-called Lost Tomb of Jesus.
Important discoveries with relevance to the Bible are made virtually
every year—during 2007 and 2008 alone researchers announced at least
seven major discoveries in Israel, five of them in or near Jerusalem. Biblical Archaeology
offers a passport into this fascinating realm, where ancient religion
and modern science meet, and where tomorrow`s discovery may answer a
riddle that has lasted a thousand
years.
Archaeologist Eric H. Cline here offers a complete
overview of this exciting field. He discusses the early pioneers, such
as Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie and William Foxwell Albright,
the origins of biblical archaeology as a discipline, and the major
controversies that first prompted explorers to go in search of objects
and sites that would "prove" the Bible. He then surveys some of the
most well-known biblical archaeologists, including Kathleen Kenyon and
Yigael Yadin, the sites that are essential sources of knowledge for
biblical archaeology, such as Hazor, Megiddo, Gezer, Lachish, Masada,
and Jerusalem, and some of the most important discoveries that have
been made, including the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Mesha Inscription, and
the Tel Dan Stele. Subsequent chapters examine additional
archaeological finds that shed further light on the Hebrew Bible and
New Testament, the issue of potential frauds and forgeries, including
the James Ossuary and the Jehoash Tablet, and future prospects of the
field.
