Best Book Since the Bible,
By Jason Coldwell (Newark, NJ USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Illustrated Manners And Customs Of The Bible Super Value Edition (Hardcover)
I am a Christian and must admit that I am ashamed at the lack of knowledge that most professing Christians have about their faith. That's just it, so many think that the pursuit of Archaeological evidence is showing a lack of faith. It is rather the contrary. God gave us minds for a reason. This book is highly recommended for solidifying one's faith due to the vast amount of empirical evidence that it relates; from the earliest mentions of the invading "Eberu" (Hebrew) peoples in letters sent from Cannanite princes to Pharoah Amenhotep to unearthed temples of the accursed god of the Philistines. All of the evidence is available. To remain ignorant is a decision.
