I think the assumptions of the minimalists and accordingly of the two books
named are arbitrary. I think reading these books would be a waste of time
unless balanced by reading the work of a maximalist such as Kennenth
Kitchen's On the Reliability of the Old Testament. Kitchen is an Evangelical
and emeritus professor of Egyptology and Archaeology from the University of
Liverpool.
