Lecturing from the perspective of a biblical theologian, Anderson stresses the interrelationship of theology and history. He maintains that archaeology is essential to properly understand the historical context of the bible. The Bible relates a literary, elitist version of the religion of Israel, whereas archaeology reveals the social context of Israelite religion, including folk religion and counterculture.
Berhnard Anderson is professor emeritus of Old Testament theology at Princeton Theological Seminary, where he taught from 1968 until his retirement in 1983. Archaeology has been one of Dr. Anderson's lifelong interests. While annual professor at the American School of Oriental Research (now the Albright Institute) in Jerusalem from 1963 to 1964, he led archaeological field trips throughout the lands of the Bible. First published in 1957, his classic Understanding the Old Testament has recently been released in its fourth edition (abridged) in paperback (Prentice Hall, 1997).
