Two full days of live talks via Zoom from world leading Bible scholars and archaeologists. Join in via computer, tablet, or phone this October 24-25, wherever you have internet. The pandemic makes it impossible for us to gather together, as we have done annually for decades, but we will not be deterred. Sign in, and share in the new finds and new analyses, advancing understanding and new debates in the field of biblical archaeology. Read below to see the exciting speakers we have and the titles of their talks.
