The very foundation of our faith rests on the assurance that the birth, life and death of Jesus all occurred in a certain place and at a certain time, recorded faithfully for us within the pages of Scripture. Also contained within those pages are the stories of real people. The details of how they worked the land, built their houses, and raised their families are central to understanding how they understood the world-changing events they experienced and the Scripture they received.
Archaeology is the science that can unlock these cultural, economic and political contexts of the Bible, helping us to bridge the centuries to understand how the original hearers of the Word understood and applied it. The result is that you gain the tools you need to apply the Word more clearly and with greater understanding to your own life! The ESV Archaeology Study Bible assembles a range of modern scholarship to create the many unique features that will aid your study:

Hundreds of sidebars provide more in-depth information on topics of interest from an archaeological perspective.
Hundreds of full-color photos, maps, and diagrams invite the reader into the visual world of the Bible.
