Abstract

It will be maintained that Griffth and White (2022) are incorrect in identification of Israel's king Ahab in relation to Shalmaneser III and Ben-Hadad II, which eliminates a 40-year gap in their chronology. Furthermore, it will be maintained that in Griffith and White (2023), rather than presenting a valid correlation of the Bible's record with archaeology, these authors have chosen secondary and faulty late chronological records from authors hundreds of years after the events and often ignorant of the previous histories and cultures, rather than arguing their case from primary records unearthed by the archaeologists. The result is a complex, confusing and incoherent presentation of history. It will also be maintained that as a result Griffith and White (2023) have made historical claims that have been developed from ancient myths, and used many names of people that are distortions of their real identities.
