About the Author

The Zondervan Handbook of Biblical Archaeology is a reference resource for any individual interested in archaeology and its relevance to biblical, theological, and apologetic studies. Illustrated with full-color photos, charts, and maps, this handbook provides readers with a wealth of information that complements and supplements the historical context of the Bible. The Zondervan Handbook of Biblical Archaeology includes an introduction to the field of archaeology for readers who may not be conversant in the methods, practices, and importance of this area of study. Included in this section is an annotated bibliography of important biblical archaeological reports, books, and journal articles for further study. The remainder of the handbook is devoted to a book-by-book (Genesis through Revelation) presentation of the most significant archaeological discoveries that strengthen our understanding of the biblical text, including a section on the intertestamental period. A rich array of visual images including photos of excavations sites, coins, maps, artifacts, and historic structures allows readers to immerse themselves on the planet of the Bible. This monumental work gives readers the opportunity to visit ancient sites and historical places whilst remaining in the comfort of their own home.
