Biblical archaeology

---

"The study of archaeology, however, involves the theologian in certain risks. The first is that he may find that the biblical events did not occur at all, that the Bible is little more than a congeries of myth and legend. For the most part archaeology has substantiated and illumined the biblical story at so many crucial points that no one can seriously take this position. Nevertheless, the role of archaeology has sometimes been negative.... It has to be admitted that there are numerous historical problems which archaeology cannot solve because there is not enough evidence. In addition, there is in the Bible an interpretation of events and of experience which is not subject to historical or archaeological testing."
