On The Reliability Of The Old Testament, by K.A. (See “On The Reliability of the Old Testament” (2003), Table 18 on page 251.) Resurrection of Lazarus The article cites the resuscitation of a woman declared medically dead. In light of all the recent discussion surrounding the Bible TV show on the history channel, I thought it would be good to discuss the reliability of the Old Testament. The Bible is a book that lets us know and understand God's way of thinking, what's important to Him and the attributes of His nature and character. True, there are passages in the Bible where hokmah, the Hebrew word for “wisdom,” is used in reference to the mastery of certain technical skills or to qualities of “character” that even nonhuman creatures may exhibit. This book is a 500-page tour de force of scholarly work from ancient Near East texts that sets the dividing line between faith and evidence. These are rather narrow academic degrees. Of New Atheism,” Karl Giberson included some not-yet-fully-developed thoughts about whether science can trump revealed religious truth and about the reliability of certain Old Testament passages about the nature of God. In most cases, those who reject the reliability of the Bible do so because of false impressions they have gained from sources other than the Bible. Wisdom is the steady, intentional, protracted development of “soul” or “selfhood,” the readiness to grow from one's experiences, learn from one's mistakes, and listen to others of proven ability and reliability.
