Why This Christian Archaeologist in Israel Is Using the Bible as a History Book – BREAKING ISRAEL NEWS CHARISMA NEWS
Dr. Scott Stripling, provost at The Bible Seminary in Katy (Houston), Texas, has been sifting the sands of Israel for over 20 years. Using the Bible as a guidebook, he is now digging in Shiloh, which he surmises may be the true site of the Tabernacle. However, some of his fiercest critics are Israeli archaeologists who claim the Bible cannot be relied upon to tell historical truth.
Dr. Stripling returned home Tuesday after 50 days of excavations at Shiloh. Stripling serves as the archaeological director for the Associates for Biblical Research (ABR), a Christian organization that brings together Biblical research and archaeology to mutually advance both disciplines.
After 20 years at Khirbet el-Maqatir, Stripling moved his team ten miles north to Shiloh last year. In addition to its significant archaeological relevance, Shiloh is important for being mentioned in the Bible as being the site of the Jewish Tabernacle for 369 years. Or so Stripling believes, though not all archaeologists agree with him.
