A number of references to Christ exist in historical sources outside the New Testament. The most comprehensive passage is one written by the first century Jewish historian Flavius Josephus, known as the “Testimonium Flavianum”. The version that has been handed down through the centuries is a Greek edition and reads as follows: “Now, there was … Continue reading “JERUSALEM

The temple that stood in Jerusalem in Jesus’ day, the so called “Third Temple” or “Herod’s Temple”, was built by the Roman ruler Herod the Great.

Clifford A. Wilson David is one of the most loved of all Bible characters.

Bryant G. Wood Quiet, pious, peace-loving Father Jose’ O’Callaghan has rocked the scholarly world. He says he has identified Dead Sea Scroll fragments as portions of the New Testament dating to A.D. 50-75 years earlier than the oldest known manuscript and only 15 years after the death of Christ. If accepted, this would radically change … Continue reading “O’CALLAGHAN’S

Clifford A. Wilson Jewish people today look back on Solomon’s long reign from about 961 to 922 B.C. as their “golden age”. Archaeology has brought to light much background information about this time of prosperity. South of Israel the great power through the centuries had been Egypt. To the northeast, the Assyrians were the mighty … Continue reading “SOLOMON

Over the past several years, Christian periodicals, as well as the secular press, have carried reports on the supposed finding of Noah’s Ark on Mount Ararat in Turkey by French amateur explorer Fernand Navarra.
