Fresh Light from the Ancient Monuments A Sketch of the Most Striking Confirmations of the Bible, From Recent Discoveries in Egypt, Palestine, Assyria, Babylonia, Asia Minor "Fresh Light from the Ancient Monuments" by A. H. Sayce is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book presents a synthesis of archaeological discoveries from ancient civilizations, such as Egypt, Assyria, and Babylon, and discusses how these findings corroborate biblical narratives. It aims to provide a fresh perspective on the historical accuracy of the Bible by illustrating it through monuments and inscriptions recently uncovered. The opening of the work sets the stage by highlighting the significant archaeological discoveries that have emerged over recent decades, emphasizing their role in shedding light on previously debated biblical stories. Sayce introduces readers to key aspects of ancient history, including the forgotten Hittite Empire and the decipherment of cuneiform inscriptions, which have revealed unexpected confirmations of biblical accounts, from the Creation story in Genesis to the historical figures and events surrounding the Exodus. Through this introductory discussion, the author establishes the relevance of the ancient monuments to modern understanding of biblical history, engaging readers in the intersection of archaeology, history, and theology from the very outset.
