Would you like to read and discuss this book together with me and your friends? You can set up a private FB group to discuss this book. I recommend you to buy this book: "The Bible Unearthed: Archaeology's new vision of ancient Israel and the origin of its Scared Texts." By Israel Finkelstein and Neil Asher Silberman.

What I will discuss in the introduction:
Religious Bias
Contradictions between the Hebrew Bible and the Archaeology
Moses - 1,500 BCE?
David - 1,000 BCE?
Editions by Temple priests, scribes, Kingdom officials, prophets.

Destruction of Temple, Conquest of Judah.
Political and religious contexts.
Hebrew Bible as one of the greatest literature.
