Noted researcher/archaeologist Randall Price tackles crucial, faitha'challenging questions about theBiblea's claims to be divine communication. All dispute boils down to two fundamental issues: Were the original writings givenby God, or were they cobbled together from traditions, myths, and human ethical notions? And if divine, have they been faithfullypassed down to us? Price brings his expert knowledge of the Bible texts to examine crucial topics: what the key ancient manuscripts reveal ideas about how mere humans composed the writings evidence from the archaeological record the gathering of inspired texts into one book the transmission of those texts to us All evidence available today, concludes the author, upholds even more strongly the agea'long views oforthodox Christianity. Not only is the Bible we have a trustworthy record of divine revelation, but it remains livingand authoritative for every time, every place, and every person.
