With detailed anecdotes about his experiences at numerous excavations, Biran demonstrates which archaeological finds correspond to biblical accounts and which do not. Citing specific examples from digs at Aroer, Tel Dan and the Jordan River area, Biran contends that archaeology can neither prove nor disprove the Bible. Avraham Biran is the director of the Nelson Glueck School of biblical Archaeology at Hebrew Union College in Jerusalem. Formerly Israel's director of antiquities and museums, he has held many government positions and has directed numerous excavations, including those at Tel Dan (the longest ongoing excavation in Israel), Aroer, Ira, Anathoth and the ancient synagogue of Yesud Hama'lah.
