Archaeology Again Supports the Hebrew Scriptures

Although certain “experts” continue to challenge the historical accuracy of the Hebrew scriptures, archaeologists keep finding evidence that the Bible is in fact, historically reliable.

Notice excerpts from the following two articles:

JERUSALEM — An Israeli archaeologist said Monday that ancient fortifications recently excavated in Jerusalem date back 3,000 years to the time of King Solomon and support the biblical narrative about the era.

Dig Supports Biblical Account of King Solomon’s Construction

Israel National News – Feb 22, 2010

Even as Muslim spokesmen try to deny Jewish claims to the Holy Land, archaeological discoveries have recently been coming in fast and furious proving the veracity of the Biblical account of history. Hebrew University archaeologists have revealed an ancient path in Jerusalem believed to date back to the time of King Solomon, along with structures including a gateway and the foundation of a building. Dr. Eilat Mazar, the leader of the archaeological dig, said the findings match finds from the time of the First Temple.Arutz Sheva TV’s Yoni Kempinski visited the archaeological dig where the ancient wall was revealed and heard from Dr. Mazar about the importance of the find and its connection to the Biblical description about the time of King Solomon. http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/136130

Over time, hopefully all will accept the evidence that the accounts in the Bible are historically accurate.

While most serious Bible believers are not misled by “scientists” that disagree with what the Bible shows, some others are.

Interestingly, even in New Testament times, there is a warning that some will be misled by false scientists:

20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: 21 Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen. (1 Timothy 6:20-21, KJV).

And those that claim to be scientists, but whose “science” does not support the accounts in the Bible should not have their falsely labeled “science” accepted. Archaeology often takes time, and those who wait long enough will realize that the real science always supports the Bible. And the same is true of biological and other sciences.

And not just now, throughout the centuries, archaeologists keep finding evidence that the Bible is in fact, historically reliable.
