Slavery Paper

Last year the session of Christ Church wrote a position paper on slavery. Do any of you happen to have a copy of that?

Bad Dates.

Secular archaeologists say that the Biblical account of Jericho is untrue, unfactual, fictional. That it didn’t happen, and there is no evidence that it happened. They say that at the time Joshua and the Israelites supposedly came to Jericho, it was already destroyed, and had been desserted for a hundred-fifty years or more.

But, and this is pretty cool, if you go back in time, guess what you find? You find that Jericho was invaded. That the walls had crumbled down (except in one spot, where house were built right up against the wall). That the city had been burned to the ground. That most houses had large containers full of grain, indicating that whoever took the city did not plunder it, and also that it was near harvest time, since grain was plenty every where. Hmm……

You also find that Canaan became inhabited by new people at that time. Nomadic people, that lived in tents. And had artifacts of Egyptian culture mingled into their own. Hmm…

See, it all has to do with the dating of these things. The secular archaeologists have their dates wrong, and so that screws up their entire chronology, and so they say that the biblical accounts never occurred.

But, according to Dr. David Down and Dr. Bryant Wood – two bible-believing archaeologists, there is an easy explanation for why these secular dates are wrong. Dating of this region is aligned with the history of Egypt. If you get the history of Egypt wrong, you will get this Canaan history wrong. And guess what? They get Egyptian history wrong. See, Egyptian history is written in dynasties. And when we westerners discovered this, we lined them up end to end. But that is not how it worked. Different regions in Egypt had different Pharoahs, and thus dynasties could be coexistant. The third and fourth might overlap by fifty or a hundred years. Or whatever. You get the picture. Thus, Egypts history has been stretched out by the secular scientists’ assumption about the dynasties. Which means the Exodus would have occurred earlier than they think. A hundred fifty or more years earlier, even.
