This site is to share with others the research done
by Dr. David P. Livingston, Ph.D. We have posted information 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 had 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 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 lectured
and conducted seminars at colleges and churches in the USA and Europe, and Jewish
communities in Israel. 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.
