Ahab, her husband was the king of Israel. When Jezebel (princess of Tyre) married Ahab she became queen of Israel. Their capital was Samaria, not Tyre. That’s how monarchies work.
Your point is kinda like saying Prince Phillip’s father was the prince of Greece. So what? He still married Queen Elizabeth II. He was still the Duke of Edinburgh. He was still part of the British monarch and his son is still King of Britain.
As for your doubt regarding the historical accuracy of the scriptural narrative… we’ll have to agree to disagree. I am of the mind that all Scripture is God-breathed and God is Truth. I place very little stock in anti-Theist revisionist history.
Thanks for your reply and all the best.
No one revised the Dead Sea Scrolls.
But keep trusting in your University educated historians and Smithsonian gatekept narrative if you’d like. They are the “experts” after all.
I’ll stick to the most ancient and reliable manuscripts thanks.
I trust the traditional scribal transmission method from Moses to Ezra (and the men of the Great Assembly; Daniel, Mordechai, etc.) to DSS. And which subsequently has remained unchanged from DSS to Masoretes to our time. Along with all the extra-biblical manuscripts supporting the scribal transmission’s fidelity and accuracy.
Usually when anti-theist scholars have issues with Scripture it is moreso over the denial of the metaphysical nature of its truth rather than its historical narrative. In truth, throughout history the Bible has debunked archaeologists many times (see, Nineveh for ex.).
For me the issue is trusting a few modern revisionist university trained Egyptologists vs. millennia of meticulous scribal tradition.
But as a mentioned already, we’ll have to agree to disagree since I believe God is able to preserve His messages. Ultimately adherence to the ancient scriptural prophetic narrative comes down to faith vs. adherence to the archaeological (scientific) narrative which, by definition, requires skepticism.
Also, since you mentioned it a couple times already - don’t discount the effect that negative emotions are having on your reasoning process. A resentment toward a corrupt political religious system having been forced upon you will undoubtedly bias you toward any pursuit of truth. What you have done is akin to someone throwing away, say the Constitution since America has done such a crappy job adhering to it. If I was to judge the Constitution solely by America’s citizenry and its political parties I would be doing myself a disservice.
