No book in human history has had more critics than the Bible. This makes sense because no other book makes greater claims over our lives. These accusations demand reasoned answers that this course seeks to provide. Use the presentations and notes below to defend the Old Testament against its critics in areas such as canonicity, prophecy, origins, the Flood, chronology, authorship of OT books, archaeology, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the unique nature of Israel as the only ancient nation that believed in but one God. See also the companion course on एनटी क्रिटिकल स्टडीज.
