Unlike other religions, the Bible records God’s actions in history and so the Bible’s historical reliability is vital to its validity. So, is the Bible historically reliable?

In this talk Trevor Harris is going to address the following questions:

  • Why are there two different Old Testament versions (Hebrew and Greek Septuagint)?
  • How did the Bible evolve?
  • Genesis covers the period from the creation to the time that Jacob and is family migrated into Egypt (over 400 years prior to the exodus). Where did Moses get his information from?
  • If the OT prophets were inspired and wrote in Hebrew over a long time, can we take our English translations as reliable?
  • How do we respond to alleged errors and contradictions?
  • What did Jesus mean when he said all the law and the prophets testify about him?
  • Can we correlate Biblical chronology with archaeological timeframes?

Trevor Harris has an Honours degree in Architecture and a Master’s degree in Urban and Regional Planning. He has practiced in these areas for 45 years. Twenty years ago he formed a company Key-line Christian Research dedicated to identifying and researching Bible sites and their history. This has included extensive field trips to the Middle East.
