Merry Christmas, dear reader! As part of your celebrations today, we thought we’d share some of the most incredible Biblical discoveries of 2023.
Good news started early in 2023, after the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA), Israel National Parks Authority (INPA) and the City of David Foundation (CDF) announced the Pool of Siloam will officially be opened to the public for the first time in 2,000 years. And while this isn’t necessarily a discovery, it did start off the year with Jesus in mind.
The Pool is Siloam was described in John 9:1-11 as the location where Jesus healed a blind man with mud. It also appears in 2 Kings 20:20, when King Hezekiah forged the pool to bring water to Jerusalem. It’s considered one of the “most significant sites affirming Jerusalem’s Biblical heritage,” Ze’ev Orenstein, director of International Affairs, City of David Foundation, told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
Shortly after this incredible announcement, two French scholars claimed they’d deciphered the Mesha Stele, revealing a reference to the “House of David,” well before the days Jesus Christ joined us on Earth. The Mesha Stele, or Moabite Stone, is a basalt rock tablet thought to date back to the 9th century B.C. and is believed to confirm the Old Testament’s account of King David, who founded ancient Israel’s legacy of kings.
