- Go on a scientific journey to the beginnings of modern religion, and dig into both the Bible and the history of the Israelites through the artifacts they left behind.

Movie Reviews of NOVA: The Bible's Buried Secrets
Movie Review: PBS at its best
Summary: 5 Stars
If there's one thing PBS does well, it's staying down the middle. This documentary never sets out trying to prove or disprove the Bible. It just tells the story, completely factual. It doesn't offer 'what if's' or goes half the program on one side then shifts to the other; it just is. This movie tells how archeologists have attempted finding the sites and people of some of the Bible's stories and how they either failed or succeeded. Plain and simple. It tells you common theories held by the scientific community, but never tries debunking them or proving them. If the theory was proven, it will tell you, but it doesn't set out with any politicl or religious angle in mind. Granted, there will always be at least one person who will manage to find fault with everything, but for the most part, no matter which side of the religious fence you fall, most people will find this is a very educational, entertaining, and non-offensive program. I highly reccomend this documentary to anyone wanting to learn a little about the history behind the scripture; you may find it very enlightening.
