This is Ken Ham, co-author of the book on Noah’s Flood called A Flood of Evidence.
Who were the Moabites? Well, they were descendants of Abraham’s nephew Lot. But did these people actually exist?
Well, archaeologists have discovered inscriptions from kings of this nation. One even mentions—by name—a king of Israel that’s recorded in the Bible! It also mentions other places from the Old Testament.
These inscriptions confirm what we already knew starting from God’s Word—the Moabites were real people in history.
Such findings in archaeology should remind us that God’s Word can be trusted. It’s a book of history. The people it mentions really lived, and the places it talks about actually existed. And its events really happened.
Ken Ham is the Founder CEO of Answers in Genesis–US, the highly acclaimed Creation Museum, and the world-renowned Ark Encounter. Ken Ham is one of the most in-demand Christian speakers in North America.
