My wife got me your book “Historical and Chronological Context of the Bible” for Christmas and let me open it early. I’m so profoundly happy to have it! I was so excited and it was so unexpected. Thank you for all the resources and things that you do to shed light on the context of God’s word! God bless, brother.
I have never been taught church history in any church I have been in Uruguay; I’m sure most Pastors don’t have any clue about it neither. I have a similar experience with History at school and high school- besides, most national history I learned was false. Now, I am homeschooling my child with SonLight curriculum (uses History-Bible-literature as it’s core) and it’s just unbelievable excellent. My child is in level B and she already know things I haven’t known till now (I am more than 40)! We are learning together and stoked in my a fire for learning more history and specially History related to the Bible (the program already does this connection all the time but for 2nd level). God has opened for me a new world of marvels! Thanks so much for these videos; they help me connects the dots in an amazing way.
I'm not a Christian but a Roman pagan, but this is a a good series. I like seeing the different interpretations of historical events by different cultures.
This man is an incredible teacher or World/Biblical History. I’m 65 and he reminds me of my 7 th Grade Michigan History Teacher “ Coach Berriman”. A gift from God are men like this, they have the ability to make an entire class really interesting. Keep my attention and make we want to learn and understand ! Gifts from Almighty God !😁
This is exactly what we need.. seeing things in context. I don't need proof that the Bible is God's word just more information of rituals, habits, mannerisms and mindset of ancient people's in those days. God bless you.
I have never… I mean NEVER been through a biblical history series of lectures as well spoken nor taught so well,so enjoyable & so thorough as these!!! So very thankful for you and the way you lecture! BTW, I mean nothing but the best by this…. But I can hear Jack Benny in your voice and it makes it that much more enjoyable!!! You see… 😉😊thank you
I’ve always been fascinated by the Bible in relation to history, and this class was just what I was looking for. It satiates my interest not only as a Christian, but also as a history buff. Keep up the nice work, sir.
Here's a little more history: Amarna letters (14th century bc), cuneiform The letters show that Egypt held considerable power over these Canaanite kings. One letter written by a king of Babylon named "Burra-Buriyas" complains about the killing of Babylonian merchants in Canaan and reminds Egypt's pharaoh that "the land of Canaan is your land and its kings are your servants." Most letters were sent from rulers of city-states in Canaan, so Amarna letters reveal that Canaan was an Egyptian province that was closely controlled. In the bible, no Egyptians are reported outside the borders of Egypt and none are mentioned in any of the battles with Canaan. (Historical evidence refutes that) The princes of the Canaanite cities (described in the book of Joshua as powerful enemies)were, actually pathetically weak going by the Amarna letters. An Egyptian amulet bearing the name of the Egyptian ruler Thutmose III was found in Israel dating back around 1200 bc. Here are some sources: (Jerusalem Post, Biblical Archaeology Society, The times of Isreal, Breaking Isreal News, Isreal National News).There are many more ancient Egyptian artifacts in Israel. Asked how the Egyptian amulet could have reached so far as Jerusalem, Dr. Barkay told the City of David, “For more than 300 years, during the Late Bronze Age, Canaan and the city state of Jerusalem were under Egyptian dominion.” basalt stele( currently at the Israel Museum) excavated at Beth Shean( Northern Israel) depicts the victory of the pharaoh Seti I, who reasserted Egyptian rule over Canaan in the 13th century B.C. Also had the battle of Kadesh (1274 Bc) which a treaty was signed between the Egyptians and Hittites who lived in current Turkey. This proves Egypt again at this time, had full control of what is now Israel because they would of gone through Isreal. (Kadesh Treaty tablets are displayed in Istanbul Archeology Museum)
Thank you so much for this series. I came to know the Lord while studying a book called "Dead Men Tell Tales". It caused me to dig into God's word, which we understand does not return void. I pray your lectures may have a similar result.
After watching tow episodes I decided to watch from first one. Thank you very much Professor Gore. You are so generous providing such amazing resources to learn bible and history. God bless you.
Just found this lectures in 2021. Thank you very much. This is very informative and amazing. Have been looking for these. Great lecture and very down to earth.. 🙏
Thank you for this mind enriching and interesting lecture. I am short of words to express my entire gratitude to Bruce Gore. This is simply a fragment of the burning light, shining forth in this world. Thank you sir.
Amazing. Thank you for the wonderful content you so freely share. God bless you Sir. Thank you Thank you Thank you. This playlist and the one on church history have been a blessing!
Love your class Mr. Gore. It is true my hillbilly friend; the Bible is sufficient and IT (nothing else needed) IS THE POWER OF GOD UNTO SALVATION. Your little Baptist friends were right. And you also are right for taking a balanced view.
We are just starting to listen the lectures and are excited to learn some very interesting things which will help us to better understand the scriptures (Bible). Thank you so much. We are grateful.
I am Greafull for your teaching and want to hear all you have to share. It is so important to understand the story and make it come alive. Your teaching is a blessing to me. I search on Amazon and did see the book. I am looking forward to seeing you on youtube as you explain the history so well.
Brother Gore, I was praying about studying Israels History in accordance with History of the surrounding world.... Then by the grace of GOd your video on Assyrian Kingdom and Jonah came up.... I just want to say Praise God for your ministry.... My dream was to go to school and get a degree in biblical history/archeology. but being that I cannot..... your lectures will be my classroom as I study the information by the leadership and guidance of the Holy Spirit.
Bro Gore, you are very entertaining and as I sit hear with 3 Bibles,( 2 study and 1 with 4 translations) I am amazed at all you have inspired me to investigate. The internet and you have spiked my interest. Thanks
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH, such a find!!! I came here from a channel called Fall of Civilizations," because I wanted to know more about the Babylonian end of things, and that channel didn't talk about it. I ended up finding THIS channel. Woot!
I agree with him, i have a M.A in biblical archaeology as well a certified professional tour guide in Israel who often hear evangelical Christians get exited when something is found. I often tell them not to get so exited because archaeology can also disprove it and we have plenty archaeologists who do so. I use archaeology to help me understand the material culture and i love it.
Interesting perspective. I was brought up Roman Catholic. I didn't learn anything about the Sumerians. I stumbled upon Jesus a Revolutionary Biography and learned more about the Romans. From there I read Bart D Ehrman. I also read Why We Believe in Gods. Learning about all the religions that we have created throughout history. We are a story creating species.
So glad to know that when you needed help, it came across your path in Bruce's teachings. I hope things are restored now and that you get more nuggets of gold from the best Sunday School teacher I ever encountered. Bless you!
***** Your welcome. I wouldn't mind purchasing a ebook. I live in the Caribbean so it would be much easier than getting a physical copy. Is there a particular website that you can direct me to?
I’m glad I’m starting from the beginning. I’m new to Bible study and I’m always looking at additional sources to help me understand the readings from the Bible study at my church. I purchased your book, and started reading it, but sort of lost interest. These lectures will help me use the text to expand on your lectures. I totally get the excitement of being able to make connections. I’m a retired teacher and this is my new hobby (aside from politics). It helps balance out the frustration of politics, too!
If nothing else, we certainly learn from biblical history that there have always been political 'thugs,' and they always come to a bad end. Thanks for your interest!
@@GoreBruce Thank you for helping to nourish that interest! Yes, political thuggery is a timeless topic! And the Bible doesn’t hold back on exposing that issue!
Thank you for your teaching Pastor Gore. I am thankful having your teaching in my life. happy resurrection day..ps I am still around the bend to translate your work Christ will help me.

Isaiah 61:10 Verse Concepts I will rejoice greatly in the Lord, My soul will exult in my God; For He has clothed me with garments of salvation, He has wrapped me with a robe of righteousness, As a bridegroom decks himself with a garland, And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
Big scheme. Yep. Am going to compare and contrast with the Mongol, Chin, and Sung over in that section of the world. This is why your study is so helpful, sir. Mark Polo, Great Wall, and the Silk Road, et cetera. External sources, prove the Bible, and would like to determine for myself the divine inspiration of the Apocrypha, DS Scrolls, Nag Hamadi discovery, and maybe even Phillip's and Thomas' travels to the East can be correlated.
Dear Bruce, I have an answer. Yesterday on facebook one of my friends quoted that very scripture referring to the way Our black men wear their pants nowadays. So far I've taken all of your classes on line and today I came across the first one. I stopped it when you asked for a response. so now I'll let you continue your lecture.
For your next book, may I suggest a series of biblical places and events, that all the experts said were myths, that turned out to be true..Nineveh being just one I find it comforting to know that the Bible keeps on getting it right and the experts..who deny the historical accuracy..keep getting it wrong
Thank you for your lectures. I find them helpful. What is your opinion of "patterns of evidence" by Mahoney? Or of David Rohl's youtube lecture based on the book?
But sometimes when I read the Bible, I have this thought that every story seems too good to be true. So it's good that there are archaeoligal artifacts to back up it's history.
Plug the book. Yaaay. Am a photographer and am trying to put together a coffee-table book. Not too much grammar and format in a book of photos, yet enough to know how difficult it would have been for you and your immediate kin, to complete a tome.
+Bruce Waite Thanks for the feedback! The Dead Sea Scrolls have given very helpful insight into the general historical setting of the first century b.c. and later, and certainly served to confirm the historical reliability of the Hebrew texts of the Old Testament, especially the book of Isaiah. The Book of Enoch is great reading. I don't think it deserves canonicity, but gives very helpful insight into certain currents of Jewish thought in the same time-frame.
Is your Historical and Chronological Context of the Bible available as an ebook? I am living in Spain and it would be easier for me to acquire if it were. Enjoying the video. Thank you!
Yep. Faith... To deny the Bible... (with my I.Q). having the dates and correlation will help us very much in our debates. Hit up Christians versus A - theists in paltalk if you ever have time. There are some fairly high calibre non-believers in there... which is actually a "belief" in and of itself.
Dear brother it would absolutely be wonderful if you produced a complete series of these videos in HD and provided them as a USB drive for other believers to purchase from your web sight. I have found your teaching wonderful and has answered questions that I have had as well as filled in gabs from my own studies.
i just started this playlist. excited. learnt a lot from the other videos. i have one question, is Lucifer a king some historical context or is he as popularly known...the devil?
Lucifer literally means 'day star.' The word is used once in the Bible (Isa. 14:12). In Isaiah, the word is referring to the king of Babylon, predicting his fall. I am not aware of any historical ruler who actually took the name Lucifer. The tie to Satan has largely flowed from speculation that the description in Isaiah seems to refer to some kind of angelic being, but that is certainly demanded by the text. Thanks for your interest!
Hola Jorge! Estoy intentando aprender espanol, pero soy solo un principiante. Lo siento. Que Dios continue bendiciendote abundantemente, amigo mio. Muchas gracias Bruce
A question Mr. Gore. The Amorites, in your book and video you call them Semitic. I found them in the lineage of Ham. Are they referred to a Semitic because they spoke in a Semitic tongue? PS Thanks for inspiring my studies.
+Iman Edwards You are quite correct. Genesis 10 ties the Amorites to the line of Ham. Sources I relied on used the term Amorite in a somewhat broader sense, to refer to a rather far-flung population that showed up in various places across the ancient near east, and thus the term seems to have had a somewhat generic application. Thanks for the feedback!
Yup. Finally got the book for Christmas. I’m watching the videos again as I read. I’m 68. Don’t ever stop learning.
Hey, I'm 75 and still feel like a beginner!

Brilliant.
Great presentatIon. What are your thoughts on the dead sea scrolls? The book of Enoch especially.
+Bruce Waite Thanks for the feedback! The Dead Sea Scrolls have given very helpful insight into the general historical setting of the first century b.c. and later, and certainly served to confirm the historical reliability of the Hebrew texts of the Old Testament, especially the book of Isaiah. The Book of Enoch is great reading. I don't think it deserves canonicity, but gives very helpful insight into certain currents of Jewish thought in the same time-frame.
Good Teacher
$39.66cdn on Amazon for the paper back. I don’t care if it was $40.00cdn I really like the book.
Thank you!
Is your Historical and Chronological Context of the Bible available as an ebook? I am living in Spain and it would be easier for me to acquire if it were. Enjoying the video. Thank you!
Yep. Faith... To deny the Bible... (with my I.Q). having the dates and correlation will help us very much in our debates. Hit up Christians versus A - theists in paltalk if you ever have time. There are some fairly high calibre non-believers in there... which is actually a "belief" in and of itself.
Perfect introduction.
Thank you!

Dear brother it would absolutely be wonderful if you produced a complete series of these videos in HD and provided them as a USB drive for other believers to purchase from your web sight. I have found your teaching wonderful and has answered questions that I have had as well as filled in gabs from my own studies.
Peter Zeleniak Thanks for the suggestion. I'll look into it!
i just started this playlist. excited. learnt a lot from the other videos. i have one question, is Lucifer a king some historical context or is he as popularly known...the devil?
Lucifer literally means 'day star.' The word is used once in the Bible (Isa. 14:12). In Isaiah, the word is referring to the king of Babylon, predicting his fall. I am not aware of any historical ruler who actually took the name Lucifer. The tie to Satan has largely flowed from speculation that the description in Isaiah seems to refer to some kind of angelic being, but that is certainly demanded by the text. Thanks for your interest!
thankyou sir
I realized I misspoke in the last sentence. It should read, '...but that is certainly NOT demanded by the text.' Sorry. Thanks again!
@@GoreBruce thank you!
Yes he is great
Sir, do you also have introduction to the background of all Paul's letters?
I was wondering that as well

Hola Jorge! Estoy intentando aprender espanol, pero soy solo un principiante. Lo siento. Que Dios continue bendiciendote abundantemente, amigo mio.
Muchas gracias
Bruce
Well, I'll buy it anyway and try to translate it, thank you and God bless.
A question Mr. Gore. The Amorites, in your book and video you call them Semitic. I found them in the lineage of Ham. Are they referred to a Semitic because they spoke in a Semitic tongue?
PS Thanks for inspiring my studies.
+Iman Edwards You are quite correct. Genesis 10 ties the Amorites to the line of Ham. Sources I relied on used the term Amorite in a somewhat broader sense, to refer to a rather far-flung population that showed up in various places across the ancient near east, and thus the term seems to have had a somewhat generic application. Thanks for the feedback!
Thanks. Mr. Gore. By the way I've recently purchased 4 of your books. One for me and the rest for some other clergy. History is not "bunk"!
+Iman Edwards Amen!
