From the Back Cover

The Holy Bible: fact or fiction? Between the covers of the Bible simmer history's most spectacular claims...but are they true? Myth or reality? Fact or fable? Now you'll be sure.

Walk with biblical scholars -- and skeptics -- through the Bible's most challenging mysteries. It's all here: expert testimony; vivid, dramatic re-creations of events in the Bible; conclusive scientific experiments that put Bible claims to the test; and, compelling new evidence that the Bible is, indeed, factual and trustworthy!

Examine Ancient Secrets of the Bible. Then, decide for yourself. Adapted from award-winning television specials, the Ancient Secrets Collector's Series is ideal for church and home viewing.

Walls of Jericho - Did They Tumble Down?

Jericho...one of the world's oldest and most mysterious cities. Could its fortress walls suddenly collapse at a mere trumpet blast? The rushing waters of the Jordan River miraculously stop flowing to give advancing Israelites an attack route to the city? Skeptics say no; but, silent witnesses recently unearthed from ancient Jericho say otherwise.

This review is from: Ancient Secrets of the Bible - Boxed Set (DVD)

I find the "Ancient Secrets of the Bible" a very helpful tool in providing a very reasonable scientific expalanation to some of the stories in Scripture. My students ranging from 3rd grade to university level have been able to follow the contents of the program without difficulty. I do hope the company will continue to produce more of this kind of videos. I am a Catholic priest and a university campus ministry chaplain. I highly recommend this set to anyone studying Scripture at any educational level. It provides a good response to those seeking to reconcile both faith and reason. And for those who already believe in the Bible, it provides an added affirmation to one's faith.

This review is from: Ancient Secrets of the Bible - Boxed Set (DVD)

While many like to heckle science if it doesn't back up a Humanistic view of the world, these DVD's will be a very helpful addition to anyone's collection. It shows good solid proofs for many of the ancient events recorded in the earliest parts of the Bible while giving detractors a voice. It's so funny that when good science is done it's called bad, but when bad science is done it's called good. Fortunetly (besides the more then 2000 years of attacks upon it) the stories of the Bible prove true.

Don't bother with people who give a silly one star rating with useless and biased comments like this: "Amateurish, dubious archelogical references, this collection is poorly performed, edited, and researched. The bible stories are typically traditional. All in all, nothing new and intellectually painful viewing. I recommend Mysteries of the Bible for substance." You can tell by the rhetorical tone of their writing that their lying and are the ones with bad research. Everything in the show's are scientifically verifiable and the top scientists (who aren't Anti-Christian) in their fields confirm the findings, even if they aren't Christians.
