In this lesson, we look at Exodus 2-4 and how God raises up Moses to lead Israel out of Egypt. In our study, we notice that Moses’ expected method of deliverance does not turn out to be God’s method. We therefore consider application for ourselves; do we sometimes find ourselves disappointed, discouraged, and depressed when God keeps…
Does ancient Egyptian history contradict the Bible? In this lesson, we investigate why the standard Egyptian chronology of history does not match the chronology given by the Bible. Specifically, we familiarize ourselves with the conventional chronology of ancient Egyptian history, consider the revised chronology proposed by Answers in Genesis and archaeologist David Down, and compare this chronology to the one asserted…
In this lesson, we examine Exodus 1 and the account of enslavement of the children of Israel. This account raises a number of questions: where was God during the suffering of the Israelites? When and for how long were the Israelites enslaved? Did God condone the lying of the Hebrew midwives to pharaoh? We investigate these…
In this lesson, we examine how God sovereignly arranged circumstances in Joseph’s early life to bring Joseph to Potiphar’s household in Egypt. We also ask what we can learn from this account in Genesis for our own lives, that is, how we can trust in God’s good plans when it looks like God’s promises are being…
In this lesson, we examine how God sovereignly chose and sovereignly provided for Jacob. We also examine Jacob’s vision of a heavenly staircase and how that vision connects with Jesus Christ.
In this Sunday school lesson, we investigate the account of Abraham’s servant acquiring Rebekah as a wife for Isaac in Genesis 24. As we observe, interpret, and apply this passage, we specifically consider how God demonstrated covenant kindness to Abraham and what that covenant kindness means for believers today.
In this final lesson of the biblical archaeology survey, David Capoccia answers questions about Patterns of Evidence: Exodus, discusses the importance of seal impressions for confirming biblical persons archaeologically, and presents archaeological findings related to Nebuchadnezzar II, Belshazzar, and Cyrus the Great.
In this lesson, David Capoccia discusses biblical archaeology related to the time of Israel’s being taken into captivity. Specifically, David Capoccia discusses Assyria’s and Babylon’s invasions of Judah. These historical events written about in the Bible are confirmed and further described through findings at Tel Lachish, Sennacherib’s palace relief sculptures, Hezekiah’s Broad Wall and Water Tunnel, the…
In this lesson, David Capoccia finishes sampling archaeology from the judges period and begins examining important archaeological finds from the time of Israel’s kings. Specifically, David Capoccia examines: the temple of Shechem described in Judges 9, the Tel Dan Stele, the Mesha Stele, and the fortress city of Khirbet Qeiyafa. The latter finds are especially important…
