Biblical Hebrew Forum

["Peter Kirk"<peter_kirk AT sil.org>]

Who wrote the material you quote? Not Rohl, I'm almost sure. Probably 
the bookseller amazon.com which has realised that it is selling lots 
of copies to the large number of (naive perhaps) "Christian and Jewish 
readers who accept the historical validity of the Bible".

Please criticise Rohl for what he has written himself, not for what 
others have written about him.

Is this volume the same as 'Pharaohs and Kings: A Biblical Quest! published 
1997?

I found on the amazon.com the following description of the content as 
published by the editor:

Pharaohs and Kings reveals the Old Testament to be a true account of the 
history of the Jewish people ... it will appeal to the vast audience for 
revisionist archaeology and history as well as to the many Christian and 
Jewish readers who accept the historical validity of the Bible ...

Who said that Rohl was exclusively interested in egyptology?
