Transcript

In recent years, we have discovered thousands of artifacts and documents that date back to biblical times. Do these have value in interpreting the Bible?

Well, this week we will look at ways we can use ancient artifacts to clarify biblical passages. But we need to remember something as we consider this question. The Bible tells us all Scripture is God-breathed and useful for teaching, correcting, and training in righteousness. Even though Scripture was written by, and often to, specific people during a time in history, the ultimate author is God. He made sure His Word was clear for all people for all time.

While ancient artifacts are informative, we really don’t need them to interpret Scripture.
