| The State of Israel bases itself on the history told
in the Bible. History that includes Moses and the Exodus, Joshua's conquest,
and the kingdom of David and Solomon, ruled from Jerusalem. So why are some Israeli archaeologists now saying that none of it is true? That there never was an Exodus. That Joshua's conquests are mythical. That the Israelites were actually the Canaanites. That the Jerusalem of David and Solomon did not exist? John McCarthy was held hostage by Islamic Jihad, a victim of a conflict that mixed theological history and politics. Now he has been back to find out the truth about the Promised Land. See what he learned, in It Ain't Necessarily So. Six films on ITV. |
