Historians have extensively studied the Old and New Testaments and used the scriptures to trace the rise of one of the world's earliest civilisations.

Although it's difficult to confirm the stories in the Bible from a historical perspective, it's possible that myths originated from real events. This is why geologists are investigating the truth about the Flood and Noah's Ark, meteorologists and biologists are trying to understand the ten plagues that affected Egypt, and biblical scholars are searching for evidence of catastrophes that might have destroyed the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah.

A book discussing the mysteries of the Bible is speculative but thought-provoking. And it suggests that science and faith may be more closely related than one might think.
