This is Ken Ham, an Aussie transplant with a passion for sharing the truths of God’s Word.
One of the “ites” from the Old Testament is the nation of Edom: the Edomites. The Bible tells us that kings reigned in Edom before any kings in Israel. But some archaeologists rejected this idea. Instead, they thought of Edom as just a simple tribal society.
But then they discovered evidence for a massive copper-mining operation in Edom. This would have taken technological advances and lots of know-how. So Edom couldn’t have been just a simple society.
Over and over, archaeology has confirmed the Bible. So when you hear the Bible can’t be trusted on history, just give it a few years. Eventually science will catch up with the Bible, because the Bible is true.
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.
