*use archaeological finds to better understand Israel’s history
*shed a Western mindset and read the Bible in its original context
*comprehend today’s religious conflicts in the Holy LandFor anyone curious about Israel of the past and the present, The Red-Haired Archaeologist Digs Israel investigates the historical and modern contexts we need to understand both the Bible and God’s people, and features photos from Amanda’s archaeological digs.
