Nelson Glueck, who appeared on the cover of Time magazine and who is considered one of the greatest archaeologists, wrote:

"No archeological discovery has ever controverted a Biblical reference. Scores of archeological findings have been made which confirm in clear outline or in exact detail historical statements in the Bible. And, by the same token, proper evaluation of Biblical descriptions has often led to amazing discoveries."

These are the words of a man who has who has been credited with uncovering more than fifteen hundred ancient sites in the Middle East.

Donald Wiseman, an archaeologist and Professor of Assyriology at the University of London, estimated that there were more than 25,000 discoveries that had confirmed the truthfulness of details in the Bible: "There can be no doubt that archaeology has confirmed the substantial historicity of Old Testament tradition."

William F. Albright, one of the world's most respected archaeologists, said: "It may be stated categorically that no archaeological discovery has ever controverted a biblical reference."

Today, so many Bible cities, names and events have been unearthed through Archaeology that the Bible is considered the most important historical document in existence. Many lost cities have been located using the Bible as a road map. So startling and impressive are some of the finds that one archaeologist was compelled to say, "They are digging up Bible stories!"

There are numerous bible-related artifacts in the British Museum located in London. They are breathtaking to see. Even if you don't go to the museum, it is possible to log on to their website and see pictures of the artifacts. Bear in mind that every one of them forced the skeptics to admit the historicity of some Bible-quotes.

Is the Bible a wonderful source for judging truth?

What counts as 'evidence' in evidential apologetics?

The evidence used in evidential apologetics is supposed to be evidence both the believer and nonbeliever share, and does not presuppose God's existence. It seems that the nonbeliever is still expected to believe in the truth of the Bible and that because the Bible is 'true', the 'evidence' in the Bible is valid. As opposed to classical apologetics, there is less reliance on extra-biblical reasoning.
