Biblical King Hezekiah's Seal Discovered By Archaeologists In A Dumpsite - CNN by Macelliot(m): 6:37pm On Dec 04, 2015
A piece of clay
inscribed with the
2,700-year-old seal of
King Hezekiah found in Jerusalem.
The seal was probably
used by the King himself, according to
experts (CNN)

A dump site is the last place you would expect to find an 8th
century B.C. seal for a
papyrus document signed by one of the kings of Judah.
Perhaps that's why it has taken 2,700 years for the piece of clay inscribed with King Hezekiah's seal
to be discovered in
Jerusalem.
It is believed to be the
first-ever seal -- also
referred to as a "bulla" -- from an Israeli or Judean
King to be discovered by archaeologists.
"The seal of the king was so important. It could have been a matter of life or death, so it's hard to
believe that anyone else had the permission to use
the seal," Eilat Mazar, who directs excavations at the
City of David's summit, told CNN.
"Therefore, it's very
reasonable to assume we are talking about an impression made by the King himself, using his own ring.
This confirms the belief that biblical events that occur some thousands of year ago are true...

Macelliot: Where are the atheists who claims that the biblical events are all myths?
Atheists thinks they are so intelligent and enlightened while they despise others...

Since Noah's ark was discovered on mount Ararat in Turkey. I have always believed more in biblical events. It is chronological with event dates well documented unlike that other book solely between an angel and one man. Fact. No offence!

If it is confirmed by the archeological community then it is a very good development..

It will help more to make out the actual history of the Hebrews which is nice...

Its a nice development...

Bro no Noah's ark was discovered on any mountain in turkey.. The Noah's flood story is a younger version of an older sumerian flood story found in Epic of Gilgamesh and Ziusudra


. I have always believed more in biblical events. It is chronological with event dates well documented unlike that other book solely between an angel and one man. Fact. No offence!

Troy and Greece were actual bronze age civilizations in this planet with archeological back up... That doesn't make the story of Odysseus travelling to tartarus true as recorded in Homers Iliad or Perseus having a flying horse.

Mount Olympus is an actual mountain in Greece even till today remains the tallest mountain in greece.. (Hellinistic greeks believed it was the abode of Zeus and the Gods)

that mount Olympus is an actual mountain doesn't make the claim of Zeus and other Hellenistic Gods living on it true..

so learn the difference between myths within an actual setting..

You mean atheists despise theists as much as theists despise themselves? undecided

Take for example the crusades that saw the murder of lots of jews and muslims as well as countless verses in the bible where god commanded killing, rape, theft and looting on supposed "enemies" of Israel. And don't forget the recent beheading and killing of Christians by Muslims. No one despises theists more than themselves. Get your facts right undecided

Sumerian flood deluge predates every other by almost 1000years..

Its actually exactly the same motif, style and theme with that of Noah the only difference is that the God in this case is Ea and the man is Gilgamesh and the sumerians wrote theirs even before there was anything like Isreal or jews.

And Ea over heard other Gods plotting to flood the whole earth not he himself wanted to flood it..

You can find the flood myths from every culture here https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flood_myth..

I have an e-book of Gilgamesh epic too ... its a nice book..

Same thing I was telling KingEbukasBlog on the other thread but he kept going on and on. These guys are so deluded that they can't understand simple things.

Either way you look at it this news is of no significance to Africans as a whole. You should be more concerned about discovering remains of the old Benin or Ife empire or artifacts from Sango's reign. Even the Israelis are amused by our gullibility and the way we lick the ass of their dead ancestors. Real and fictional undecided
