This site is
to share with others the research done by Dr. David P. Livingston,
Ph.D. We will keep posting new materials on archaeology,
creation vs evolution, early man, ancient texts, the Flood, Exodus & Conquest.
The materials posted on this site are based
on the belief that the Bible is God's Word and is relevant today.
As Dr. Livingston encountered numerous attempts by historians,
theologians, archaeologists and scientists to discount the validity
of the Scriptures, he decided to try to meet these challenges.
He began in 1967 by trying to resolve the archaeological problems
encountered in the excavations at Jericho and Ai. To that end
in 1969 he founded the Associates for Biblical Research (which
he directed for 25 years), for the purpose of creating a think-tank
for scholars and a resource for laymen.
Dr. Livingston has a Ph.D. in archaeology
from Andrews University, an M.A. from Trinity graduate school
in Deerfield, IL, an M.Div from Pittsburgh Theological Seminary,
and a B.A from Wheaton College. He spent 10 years in Korea with
his family from 1956 - 1966, including five years as the president
of Kwan Dong College in KangNung, Korea. He initiated excavations
at Khirbet Nisya (the"forgotten ruins"), in Israel,
in 1979 as a result of his search for the Biblical city of Ai (and its neighbor, Bethel);
he has directed excavations there for 24 years. He recently
published his research in:
Khirbet Nisya: The Search for Biblical Ai 1979 - 2002
Dr. Livingston published many of his
articles in the newsletters and monthly magazines published
by
Associates for Biblical Research
(hereafter referred to as "ABR") and in several other magazines
including
Biblical Archaeology Review ("BAR").
He has lectured and conducted seminars at colleges and churches
in the USA and Europe, and Jewish communities in Israel. As
his materials become available in a format to share with you,
they will be added to this site. Although Dr. Livingston retains
copyrights, you may make copies and share if you give proper
credit. It is our prayer that this will become a blessing to
you as you study God's Word, and that it will help to answer
your questions.
