Synopsis

This book investigates the critical examination of Old Testament texts and their implications for historical reliability and the Christian faith. The author challenges the presuppositions and methods of certain critical approaches, advocating instead for a more holistic and open-minded approach that draws on various disciplines, including archaeology, history, and theology. The book argues that many critical assertions are far from settled and that much of the work done has been over-confident and neglectful of essential sources of evidence. By engaging with the critical problems in a nuanced and careful manner, the book ultimately reinforces the idea that the Old Testament can be trusted as a reliable historical source and that its teachings continue to have vital significance for the Christian faith.
