Product Description
Product Description
It has long been believed that the great historical events described in the Old Testament were mythological; the accepted chronology of the region does not tally with archaeological discoveries. Through a revision of the master chronology of the ancient world, David Rohl attempts to prove that the events of the Bible really did happen as recorded in the Books of Genesis, Exodus, Judges, Samuel, Kings and Chronicles. Many of the conundrums of the past are explained, and legendary figures such as Joseph, Moses, David and Solomon find their true political setting and some of their archaeological remains are discovered.

What an amazing book! I could not put this book down, and as a part-time scholar of both Egyptology and theology I was absolutely riveted by the ideas put forward within this book. I will certainly be reading ALL his other books!
Format:Hardcover
It's well written and well researched as of late. I look forward to reading the rest of it...

I must comment that this is the best Book on Egyptology and Ancient History I have ever read. Traditional Egyptologist are apparently blind to the truth before them on the Ground in Egypt and in the Holy Land. Do not be mislead by the Reviewer who labels this Dribble. It is Dribble to those fools who have PHD's that build upon the work of others without using critical thinking skills and who spit out the same now discredited dribble that they purport to be History simply to protect their own work. What has happened in the past exactly cannot be known when it happened so long ago. Hopefully though more people like David Rohl will attempt to write History that is as accurate as possible.
I also recommend strongly The Orion Mystery which of course is an Anathema to the Traditional Egyptologist.
