Ralph Ellis - Biblical History Rewritten : 241

This week we are joined by author and historian Ralph Ellis.

Ralph has toured the Mediterranean for more than three decades searching for secular similarities and parallels between the apparently disparate disciplines of history and theology.
Why are so many of the famous biblical characters missing from the historical record? Does this biblical lacuna mean that both the Old and New Testaments are fictional, as many people have claimed? Or are we simply looking in the wrong locations or perhaps even the wrong eras?

Strap yourselves in for a revision of biblical history that pulls no punches and is not for the faint-hearted.
