A burned and broken wall embedded with arrows and sling stones tells of a city taken by storm. A scribbled message on a piece of pottery reveals the urgency of the hour. Palace inscriptions and clay tablets in a royal archive reflect a well-organized central government. Inscribed silverware, jewelry, and household items illustrate the domestic life of the inhabitants. Archaeology throws dramatic light on the biblical record. The evidence will surprise and inform you as you turn over the soil of history from the pages of your Bible. The witness of the trowel authenticates and illuminates the people and events, lifting them from the pages of the Book and setting them in the context of time and place. Join us on an exciting journey with this evidence from the past.

Egypt, the fabled land of romance, intrigue, mystery, and terror, but above all fabulous wealth and glittering gold! Ever since Napoleon's invasion in the 1790s and the incredible discovery of Tutankhamen's intact tomb in the Valley of the Kings in 1922, the world has been increasingly drawn to books, films, museums and exhibitions that focus on the land of the Pharaohs. Through the pages of this travel guide you are invited, from the comfort of your home, or in Egypt itself, to discover some of the many wonders that the land contains. This guide is predominantly concerned with biblical and Christian history, but also gives a flavour of other times and personalities. We invite you to travel through Egypt with Abraham, Joseph, Moses, Jeremiah, and Joseph, Mary and the infant Jesus, along with other famous people of history, to discover events that have shaped history and caused generations to wonder about the land that lies either side of the River Nile.

This beautifully produced book with over 200 full colour images, reveals some of the many discoveries that either authenticate or illustrate the biblical narrative. The text is accurate, informative &amp; assumes no prior knowledge of the world of archaeology. It follows the biblical record from Genesis to Revelation. Timelines of the Ancient Near East empires, articles on specific thorny issues such as the Pharaoh of the Exodus &amp; the census of Quirinius, an assessment of fallacies in the world of biblical archaeology &amp; a detailed bibliography, all add to the value of this unique volume.

The Bible is full of people, places and events that are set in real points of history. So you can check it out and discover just how reliable it is.  The Christian Bible is a thrilling account of God s plan for the human race from the beginning of creation to the end of the world and beyond. Each book within the Bible follows a carefully ordered plan building towards the complete picture. That picture is God s rescue plan for the human race through Jesus Christ.  Too often people dismiss the Bible as unreliable without realising that archaeologists have uncovered so many things that confirm its accuracy. What follows in this booklet are just a few examples of the evidence demonstrating that the Bible is a book of accurate and reliable history.  This is only a taster of the much larger and fully referenced book Evidence for the Bible.

Background to the Bible is a companion to the popular Evidence for the Bible that was p published in 2014. That publication could not possibly cover all the evidence supporting the trustworthiness of the biblical record, and new discoveries are constantly coming to light in the vigorous and enlightening science of archaeology related to the Bible. In Background to the Bible we have added new information to encourage an informed journey through the pages of the Bible. For serious study or for relaxed and informative reading, Background to the Bible will prove invaluable to all who have an interest in understanding what lies behind and around the events recorded in the Bible, which is the world’s most influential and widely sold, distributed and translated book.

Few have combined so many gifts and achievements in such a short lifetime as Charles Haddon Spurgeon. During his forty-one years as a Christian pastor and preacher, Spurgeon published 150 books, while preaching regularly to congregations of 6,000, in addition to launching almost seventy charitable causes, many of which still exist today. His impact was so great, that over a century after his death he is still read by millions on every continent.  Travel with Spurgeon will enable you to follow his life and retrace his journey 'from a teenage country pastor to the largest congregation in the capital city of the British Empire' during the heyday of Victorian preaching.
