GGG Ping.

I used to subscribe to Biblical Archaeology Magazine and I think it was this guy that was always 'fussing' with someone in that magazine.

Likened to a “lightening rod” by the journal Science (2007), Prof. Finkelstein is famous for his unconventional way of interpreting biblical history: he puts emphasis on the days of the biblical authors in the 7th century B.C.E. and theorizes that ancient rulers such as David and Solomon, who lived centuries earlier, were “tribal chieftains ruling from a small hill town, with a modest palace and royal shrine.”

God’s Word says that Solomon was the wealthiest and wisest ruler EVER? I believe God.

Well, if you listen to THE Bible Answerman, all of this has already happened and everything else is symbolic anyway. Of course...he is right about everything. :^)

Thanks Blam. Finkelstein is IMHO mostly full of it. He attributes to mythical Canaanite culture the very things built during the early kingdom, then claims there are no traces of the early kingdom.

To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.

Fascinating stuff. One of my dreams is to volunteer on this dig once life allows me to free up enough time.
