The claim has been made that the biblical account of the fall of Jericho’s walls cannot be true because, archeological evidence tells us, the city of Jericho didn’t yet exist. So how should Bible-believing Christians respond?

This film argues that while the prevailing interpretation of the archeological evidence does differ from the biblical account, a choice is also being made to interpret that evidence in the most skeptical light. There is, in fact, great evidence that matches right up with the bibical account, and runs counter to the prevailing interpretation.

For example, there is the evidence provided by the remains of the walls, which show that they fell outward, and by doing so provided a ramp of rubble up to the mound on which the city was built, “so everyone charged straight in” (Joshua 6:20). This, and other physical facts match up nicely with the biblical description of the city’s destruction.

I really enjoyed this instructive, fast-paced documentary and appreciated the way in which the producers addressed the evidence head-on to show that it does not present us with a contradiction after all.
