By Clayton Van Huss

$19.99 + $5 shipping = $24.99

Behind the beloved flannel graph landscapes and paper tents of our childhood Sunday school classes lies the complex and fascinating historical world of Abraham.

In Abraham Unearthed, biblical archaeologist Clayton Van Huss takes readers beyond the familiar outlines of the story and into the lands, cultures, customs, and conflicts that shaped the patriarch’s world. Following the biblical narrative from Ur to Hebron, this richly illustrated study explores what archaeology, ancient texts, and historical geography can reveal about life in Middle Bronze Age Canaan—the world in which Abraham lived, traveled, worshiped, fought, and waited for God’s promises to be fulfilled.
