Each year archaeologists discover many new finds at sites throughout the lands of the Bible, but few of them make the news headlines. Revisionist scholars often seek to undermine and downplay the relevance of many of the discoveries, believing that Sodom never existed, the Exodus never happened, Jericho never fell to the Israelites, and David was never a great king. This work challenges the minimalist views by bringing together many of the new discoveries from the last 20 years highlighting the recent finds that are relevant to the claims of the Bible. Experienced archaeologist David Graves has assembled a helpful collection of discoveries that will take you on an amazing journey.
Biblical Archaeology Vol 1. Second Edition: An Introduction with Recent Discoveries That Support the Reliability of the Bible. 2nd ed. Vol. 1. Toronto, Ont.: Electronic Christian Media, 2018. Full Color Edition ISBN: 978-1983978364; Black and White Edition ISBN: 978-1985349087.While the Bible does not change, the same cannot be said for archaeological finds. There is a continual release of archaeolgical information each year that demands the need to update the discoveries for the public in a format that is both informative and understandable. Thus, this second edition was completed to provide the most up-to-date archaeological material and also make the material available in both black and white and color. The layout has been refreshed using a single column and many new images were added. It is the hope and prayer of the author that those who read these discoveries would be blessed and encouraged in their faith and that know that the Bible is historically accurate so they can better understand what is being said.
The Online Biblical Archaeology Companion website is free for everyone and accessible through this LINK. The website does not provide the material of the book but does provide photos from the book, enlarged and in color, external web links, and an extended bibliography for research, along with additional bonus material that could not be put into the book due to space limitations.

Thousands of artifacts have been discovered that relate to the Bible, but few of them make the news headlines. Revisionist scholars often seek to undermine and downplay the relevance of many of the discoveries, believing that Sodom never existed, the Exodus never happened, Jericho never fell to the Israelites, and David was never a great king. Volume one presented the recent finds from the last 20 years, while this work also challenges the minimalist views by bringing together many of the famous discoveries from the last 100 years highlighting the notable finds that are relevant to the claims of the Bible. Experienced archaeologist David Graves has again assembled a helpful collection of discoveries that will take you on a journey to confirm the historicity of the biblical events and people of the past.
