Biblical Archaeology
Course Description
This is the suggested course sequence that allows one core area of history to be studied per semester. You can change the sequence of the semesters per the needs or interests of your student; materials for each semester are independent of one another to allow flexibility.
The Archaeology Book
You will learn both the techniques of the archaeologist and the accounts of some of the richest discoveries of the Middle East that demonstrate the accuracy and historicity of the Bible. You will unearth: how archaeologists know what life was like in the past; why broken pottery can tell more than gold or treasure; some of the difficulties in dating ancient artifacts; how the brilliance of ancient cultures demonstrates God’s creation; history of ancient cultures, including the Hittites, Babylonians, and Egyptians; the early development of the alphabet and its impact on discovery; the numerous archaeological finds that confirm biblical history; and why the Dead Sea scrolls are considered such a vital breakthrough.
Unwrapping the Pharaohs
Authors David Down and John Ashton present a groundbreaking new chronology that supports the biblical account. Go back in time as famous Egyptians such as the boy-king Tutankhamen, the female pharaoh Hatshepsut, and the beautiful Cleopatra are brought to life. Learn who the pharaoh of the Exodus was and where his pyramid is in this captivating new look at Egyptian history. The DVD includes a breathtaking journey through the pyramids and temples of Egypt. Go deep into ancient tombs and discover the fascinating architecture and history of the pyramids. See how discrepancies in biblical and secular chronologies are easily reconciled.
Unveiling the Kings of Israel
Study the history of the small nation of Israel, including the troubled and devastating periods of loss and exile once lost to time. Far from being a book of myths, the Bible is an amazing historical record and each year, more archaeological discoveries continue to prove its validity and significance. Follow the intriguing clues found buried in ancient cities, on the walls of early monuments, and in the written records of our world’s oldest civilizations. Walk the ancient streets, explore the distant temples, and unearth the compelling history that continues to resonate with the world today. As you study fascinating accounts that fill in some of history’s unwritten record, you can follow the Biblical timeline through detailed photos and examples.
