Unwrapping the Pharaohs
John Ashton and David Down
Hardcover / $30.00 / 221 pages / full colour
There is no doubt that the artifacts of ancient Eygpt exert a certain fascination on most people. Those huge pyramids and wonderful art objects and inscriptions are hard to ignore. However the standard interpretation of Eygptian history is difficult to fit into a Biblical context. The authors however, in the traditon of other conservative scholars, argue persuasively that the standard Egyptian chronology needs to be shortened. This book, richly accompanied by beautiful photographs, demonstrates how Eygyptian and Biblical history are in close agreement. Highly recommended.
