Thank you Alisa for interviewing Dr.Stripling, it's a fascinating subject and he has a talent for teaching. God bless you.

Dr.Stripling's excitement and pure joy is written all over his face. I enjoyed this so very much!

Finally. Alissa hasn't been in my you tube rotation lately. And then she shows up, and of coarse, knocks it out of the park! King David historic? Got my attention, lol. Have I told you guys lately how much I love Alissa? God richly bless this servant of Christ! Brilliant, lovely guest! She gets the best people and has the best discussions. Bring your note book, lol. One of my favorite shows on utube. Three words on Alissa Childers: intelligence, elegance, and class! She's our Deborah for modern day America. Who better to bring God's people to the online world? Nobody has more class!

Dr. Scott Stripling is to archeology what Dr. James Tour is to synthetic chemistry. Both great men of science.

Can't wait for your next episode with Dr. Stripling! I get so excited about these archaeological finds. Dr. Stripling and his fellow believing scientists really bring glory to God!

This was absolutely PHENOMENAL from beginning to end! And I definitely learned some things I didn't know before on this subject!

This is an enlightening, inspiring video! Thanks, Alisa, for your channel that the Lord uses to spread the Gospel. Full support from Manila, Philippines, here!

It is so good to know that there are no leaks and flaws in Christianity! I mean, our faith affirms that and we are assured by the Spirit. But, to also see history confirming the Bible is fascinating!

I must watch it all again, so great. Thank-you Dr for coming on, I could listen to you constantly. I've often wished I had chosen Biblical Archeology as a career, so exciting.

Thank you Alisa and Dr. Stripling!

Appreciated. These archeologists like Dr. S and others presenting on this forum and other apologetics forums, bring the "mute" material evidences that underline the truth of the word of God.

Thank You Alicia for this kind of programs. It helps a lot to us.

I really enjoyed this and learned a lot. W.F. Albright is considered to be the greatest Bible archaeologist of the 20th century. He wrote: "There can be no doubt that archaeology has confirmed the substantial historicity of the Old Testament tradition." (Albright, Archaeology and Religion of Israel, p. 176). Even liberal sources admit to the general historical reliability of the Old Testament. Jeffrey Sheller writes: "In extraordinary ways, modern archaeology has affirmed the historical core of the Old Testament--corroborating key portions of the stories of Israel's patriarchs, the Exodus, the Davidic monarchy, and the life and times of Jesus." (Sheller, Is the Bible True? p. 52). When writing about the Old Testament, William Green declares: "It may safely be said that no other work of antiquity has ever been so accurately transmitted." (General Introduction to the Old Testament, p. 21). The archaeologist, Nelson Glueck writes: "It may be stated categorically that no archaeological discovery has ever controverted a single biblical reference. Scores of archaeological findings have been made which confirm in clear outline or in exact detail historical statements in the Bible." (Glueck, Rivers in the Desert, p. 31).

Love listen to Scott. What knowledge this man has..

we totally need a book about these things! Would Dr. Stripling do us the favor?

I will be interested to see the peer reviewed paper when published. I am not an expert but scanning the press on this find (eg the newspaper Times of Israel) would suggest at least two possible areas of criticism (which I assume a peer reviewer would dig into): 1) the dating (how to know it is 11th C BCE or whatever) - they were getting this from an excavation dump analysis using “wet sifting” not a stratified site; 2) how they did the scans to see “inside” the metal to get the text. I would look forward to hearing what the key peer reviewed points were and how Dr Stripling has handled them, even if it does get into the technical weeds a bit. So Alisa, if you follow up on this in say 6-9 months to see how the peer review and other feedback went - and if this indeed upsets the prior views in academia on this time period in Israel’s history. I will definitely watch that follow up. Interesting!

Great interview: archeology validates scripture.

An amazing podcast. A good introduction to this year's Easter celebration.

I always find the secularist perspective on the Bible and archaeology to be very curious. On any particular detail (even the most mundane ones, like the name of a town or a ruler) they usually treat the text of Scripture as unreliable UNLESS they find an archaeological find that supports that detail. But even if they don't think the text is inerrant and inspired, why don't they INSTEAD give the text the benefit of the doubt, since we are 2,000 years removed from the events recorded? Maybe they should have a little bit of humility, and just assume that the text is reliable, but they just haven't yet discovered an archaeological find to corroborate it?

What a great video...Loved it

Thank you so much to Dr Stripling ... I thank you so much

Beautiful!! 😍

Psalm 40, love this psalm, so many hidden treasures, like verse7. 1 Psalm 40 For the director of music. Of David. A psalm. 1 I waited patiently for the LORD; he turned to me and heard my cry. 2 He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. 3 He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD. 4 Blessed is the man who makes the LORD his trust, who does not look to the proud, to those who turn aside to false gods. [1] 5 Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders you have done. The things you planned for us no one can recount to you; were I to speak and tell of them, they would be too many to declare. 6 Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but my ears you have pierced [2] [3] ; burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require. 7 Then I said, "Here I am, I have come-- it is written about me in the scroll. [4] 8 I desire to do your will, O my God; your law is within my heart." 9 I proclaim righteousness in the great assembly; I do not seal my lips, as you know, O LORD. 10 I do not hide your righteousness in my heart; I speak of your faithfulness and salvation. I do not conceal your love and your truth from the great assembly. 11 Do not withhold your mercy from me, O LORD; may your love and your truth always protect me. 12 For troubles without number surround me; my sins have overtaken me, and I cannot see. They are more than the hairs of my head, and my heart fails within me. 13 Be pleased, O LORD, to save me; O LORD, come quickly to help me. 14 May all who seek to take my life be put to shame and confusion; may all who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace. 15 May those who say to me, "Aha! Aha!" be appalled at their own shame. 16 But may all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; may those who love your salvation always say, "The LORD be exalted!" 17 Yet I am poor and needy; may the Lord think of me. You are my help and my deliverer; O my God, do not delay.

Thank you!!

I enjoyed this a lot ^•^

You better check the arrival of James remains in the Iberian peninsula, and kept in Northwestern Spain (Santiago de Compostela, Galicia). This tradition from the early centuries, which gave rise to the Compostela pilgrimages (the way) till today is much more consistent than the find of a tomb with three probably common names of the time.

Fascinating!

Up until recently I didn’t know he was right here in my hometown. 😎

I was just talking with my church about the first one Sunday…we’ve been studying that three author mess in seminary, I rejected it because Christ said it was Moses that wrote the Pentateuch in John 5:46….can’t wait to share this in my sermon Sunday! Thanks, Alisa God bless you and your archaeologist friend!

Thank you Alisa for this video. It literally 🤯 🧠 💣

Great!

The location of where things and people are found and from is very interesting to me... Sometimes locations and places really paint a picture. Sometimes we are given pieces of things and do not understand at the time what that information means but in the end it will be very obvious and clear. I believe the Bible has a verse that describes what i am trying to say.

This was so interesting! I've recently been learning about archaeological evidence for thr Bible. It's great to hear more about this subject!

Hello from one of the Shilo diggers from southwestern Virginia!!

The good Dr. is there ONLY one I've ever heard speak of archeology report of the finding of Caiaphas bone box. The report shows 2 CRUCIFIXION ROMAN NAILS found with the bone box of the High Priest. They are at TELE AVIV University. PLEASE MAKE THEM PUT THEM IN THEIR MUSEUM WITH HIS BONE BOX 😂

The stones cry out!!!!

Don’t forget in Genesis. They mentioned Joseph’s bones so I believe that tradition of gathering the bones goes way back way way back.

PLEASE DO A SHOW ON THE BENT ROMAN NAILS found in Caiaphas bone box!😂

5 Top Archeological Finds -- that affirm the Bible: 1. Curse Tablet of Mt. Ebal 2. Dead Sea Scrolls 3. Slab with name of Pontius Pilate 4. Ossuary (bone box) of James 5. Stele of the House of David

Very good video .....I hope my opinion can clarify the integrity of our great Holy Bible ...... I believe our God is tremendously powerful and if he could build all the universes and all the stars and all the planets and build man out of dust from the ground if he could do all that I believe that he can make a Bible that is 100% true and accurate and flawless and the King James first Bible I believe is flawless I believe it is one-hundred-percent flawless in my opinion 😳😳😳😳😳❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Can you do DNA on finds or are they to old

👍🏻

Thanks for another great podcast! The recording of this on Apple podcast has a bit of skipping and repeating in the audio.

back in 2015 when i went for religious conversion classes i dropped out shortly after being told by the prominant man giving the class that "Moses may not have been a real historical person"... I believe everyone should seek Yehovah while there is still breath in all of us. I seek Yehovah.

❤👍

And Dr Hugh Ross a scientist who talks about the" book of nature" . Nature the universe declares the glory of God🙏

❤

I believe that all of the discoveries that have surfaced in the last century and today, are meant by God to 'weed out' the goats from the sheep in these last days, by bringing nominal believers to a strong faith before the Rapture.

This was really good but just grossly apologetic. It comes off as apologetics versus honest inquiry.

🕊JOHN 14:26 🕊REVELATION 2:17 🕊I RECEIVED A WHITE STONE IN MY KJV BIBLE, ONE JUST MYSTERIOUSLY APPEARED IN IT. 🕊JOHN 14:6 🌹JOHN 3:3-5 ✝️ THEN REPENT OF YOUR SINS 🕊REVELATION 3:10🕊20:6🕊7:14 ✝️🌹🕊GOD BLESS ALL

Wait I'm positive that all of the dead sea scrolls have been found to be forgeries.

David did exist and the txts are true. Period. The Bible also speaks of dragons.... I believe the Bible to be the accurate truthful word of God . Nothing in it is contradctory. Archeology does not luminate the txt. The txts luminate themselves.

Why are people who claim to have "faith"...so DESPERATE to find evidence???

Corroborates

There is a lot that isn't accurate have you seen patterns of evidence Dr. Scott? Your find isn't as great as patterns of evidence in my book. It doesn't mean it doesn't matter, it means you're late to the game. But greatful for you.

Scott Stripling is a Bible archaeologist with a Bible in one hand and a shovel in the other searching for an inscription here and an artifact there that will affirm his faith in Bible stories. This search for proof of Bible stories has been going on among believers for thousands of years.

I have always believed in God, but I believe in Christianity specifically because it's true. In my opinion here is very little actual "faith" in Christianity. Like the Dr said, we are pretty sure Christ lived and died - faith is only whether you believe He died for your sins or not. I feel God makes faith 8n Him very easy - but maybe that's just me.

Dear ALISA, IF U WANT TO KNOW many more references about Jesus outside the Bible , go to the early church fathers , of the Catholic and Orthodox , THERE ARE MANY MORE THEN 6 6 or 7, The letters of St Ignatius , martyred around 107 AD, SAINT POLYCORP MATTERED IN 154 OR 7, both knew Peter who was before he want to MATTERED ROME WAS Bishop of Antioch and appointed St. Ignatius in his place to care for the flock just before heading to Rome, and Polykarp wasn't a deciple of St, John and there are many more , Avery careful reading of Eusebius "The History OF The Church, Penguin Classics , who had access to many documents we no longer have, and many more we since his time do have , which makes him a reliable source , if u study not just read, you will find this history very Catholic.ETC. I WAS ONCE AN EVANGELICAL MYSELF , BUT READING THIS BOOK STUDYING IT , began to show me that in fact there was a different Church THEN the one I was at that time in....they had bishops priests eucharists etc etc, I too studied apologetics since that was an excellent tool to not only answer questions for others but for myself ....it took me a few years to fight my own pre conceived protestant ideas...to see to all and much prayer but in the end like so many others Scott Hahn etc, as St John Henry Newman put it ," to go deep into history is to become Catholic ''' , there are a 3 vol set of Catholic apologetics entitled RADIO REPLIES, compiled bye 2 priest where in anyone could call that show and challenge them on any question or claims, they are brief answers, but I found a ton of names in info which helped to go deeper by of course looking up those references they gave and so on and on I want despite the disturbance and prejudice I had to fight in me so I could fight past myself to get to the bottom of all the challenges I kept bumping into....Not an easy thing when ones paradime was being demolished at least in part, I did have a very negative view of the Catholic Church at this time , since I thought I knew all about it having grown up in Catholic schools before Vat 2 , but I WAS A CHILD and they simply taught me the faith, not where we got it from or history , pr say, later had I stayed then I would have gotten all that , anyway I wish u a good journey Stephen

Buy the command of The Father and The Power of the Holy Spirit, Jesus made everything, and without Him was not anything made, that was made! Jesus is the physical manifestation and physical Body of God, which is the way God operates in the physical dimensions. Starting from Genesis 1:1, We see Jesus, and we see the proof of Jesus, by the Truth that now there exists physical dimensions, along with the spiritual and other dimensions where God resided, resides now, and will always reside, from Eternity, to Eternity!

Alisa, Jesus is James half brother. If Joseph was Jesus father we have a problem.

If you find a tomb with the inscription: Jesus son of Joseph James brother... Then, is your faith shaken? Not mine!!! That's why I think it's absurd to believe that mortuary findings with names have per se any significance. It's common sense that they have almost negligible consistency.

The only two stories in the bible that have proof is the two times Jerusalem was sacked. Finding a man's name on a slab or rock, does not prove the whole story true.

Dr.Nehemia Gordon has searched through at least 1,776 hebrew manuscripts won’t be correct vowel points to pronounce his holy name. It is not Yahweh

Its hypothesis not fact boss! VERY PROBABLE BUT NOT SET IN STONE! I think any scholar would also agree with me!

"Judge not by appearance but judge by righteous judgment." Jesus Christ What happens in the world is not what is important. "They are not of the world as I am not of the world." "The kingdom of heaven is within you." This is the realm that holds the truth of who we are and why we are here. "History does not hold the truth of our purpose any more than the present physical moment does. We know truth through prayer, not the physical senses. Use the moment to connect with truth through prayer. Love takes us home, not history.

Yeah there were all these dudes walking around the Middle East name Dave Johnny, Pete, Paul, lots of Mary’s! David MEANS beloved! It’s a story you pharassiee !

islam is the very antithesis of the Christian Faith, and even it authenticates Jesus, though islam came along centuries after Jesus was gone. The qur’an, if you can imagine, has a whole book on Mary, mother of Jesus! Not only does it talk about Jesus, but it proclaims that Jesus was the only Man ever to walk on earth, who never sinned! He is even considered one of, if not the greatest profit, second to more-ham-I’d.

Some things in the bible are true - like some places and some people. Some things in the bible are made up - like virgin birth and resurrection. Just like Spiderman and New York. LOL
