The Battle of Jericho: Biblical Truth or Myth (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781525563119)

The Bible is the most widely read book in the world. It brings guidance and comfort to those who read it. A great many people believe in every word of the Bible. Yet, there are modern scholars who have dismissed parts of the Bible as a myth or simply a moral tale. They believe that the violent conquest of Canaan never happened, though it is described so vividly in the Book of Joshua and the following Books of the Bible. That the tribes of Israel settled peacefully in Canaan. They cannot reconcile a violent conquest with the date at which they believe that the Israelites entered the Promised Land. And so, they have dismissed parts of the Bible as being mere myth because it is inconvenient. I believe they have lost their way in interpreting the Bible. I have searched through the archaeological record and matched what I have found with the events described in the Bible. My book puts forward a plausible theory of how this pivotal battle unfolded. See if you agree with me. The Battle of Jericho, truth or myth.
