Christianity Etc › Re: Biblical Village Of Bethsaida Where Jesus Fed The 5,000 Found by jidxin(m): 11:11pm On Aug 27, 2020 |
gasparpisciotta: A Biblical village where Jesus is said to have performed some of his most famous miracles really existed, and today lies in ruins only a mile from the Sea of Galilee, archaeologists believe.
In the Bible, Bethsaida was home to disciples Peter, Andrew and Philip, and was where Jesus purportedly fed the 5,000, walked on water and helped a blind man to see.
Archaeologists have been working for 32 years to find the lost city, which was eventually cursed to destruction by Jesus because residents failed to repent in spite of his miracles.
Now professor Rami Arav of the University of Nebraska says he is in no doubt that Et-Tell, in the Golan Heights near the Jordan River estuary, is the location of the biblical village.
Ancient sources place several requirements for the identification of Bethsaida,' Aray said,' adding that 'finds in Et-Tell convinced not only me but a group of experts.'
To argue his case, Dr Arav refers to the Roman historian, Titus Flavius Josephus, who describes the location of Bethsaida in his writings.
'Josephus says that the town was in the 'lower Golan' near the estuary of the Jordan River,' said Dr Arav - the same location as the El-Tell.
A biblical village cursed to destruction by Jesus really existed and today lies in ruins only a mile from the Sea of Galilee, archaeologists believe Researchers have been working at the site for 32 years and now believe it is safe to say it was the site of the biblical city
Researchers have been working at the site for 32 years and now believe it is safe to say it was the site of the biblical city.
The professor also highlights Josephus' description of how Bethsaida was later 'advanced unto the dignity of a city' and renamed Julias, after the wife of Roman emperor Augustus.
THE BIBLICAL MIRACLES OF BETHSAIDA Bethsaida — the biblical hometown to disciples Andrew, Peter and Philip — was reputedly where Jesus performed a number of miracles.
These included the feeding of the 5,000, in which Christ — following the death of John the Baptist — used five loaves and two fishes supplied by a boy to feed a crowd of his followers.
The Gospel of Mark, meanwhile, tells of a blind man of Bethsaida whose sight was restored after two blessings from Jesus.
At Et-Tell the research team studying the location discovered a temple that was dedicated to Julia, Augustus' wife.
The name Bethsaida translates as 'house of fishing/hunting' and Dr Arav believes this holds another clue.
He contends that the ruins at Et-Tell were once known as Zer, which could also be transcribed as 'Tzed', a Hebrew word that means both hunting and fishing.
And though Et-Tell is over a mile from the Sea of Galilee – contrary to the biblical description of Bethsaida as a place accessible by boat – the dig site may have been closer in ancient times.
The transformation, it's argued, can be explained by tectonic movements and changing water levels in the lake.
Dr Arav said: 'Basically you need to know that the Sea of Galilee is right in the middle of the Syro-African rift and is prone to tectonic shifts.'
They researchers also discovered ancient fishing equipment among the ruins of the settlement.
Jesus was said to have cursed the village, warning it faced worse treatment than Sodom – a city destroyed by God in the Old Testament.
Although Bethsaida did not meet the calamitous end Jesus foretold, it was ultimately abandoned.
'Fortunately Jesus did not say when the town will be destroyed,' joked Dr Arav.
'So in the 4th century it was abandoned and, without maintenance, the buildings collapsed.'
The professor also threw down the gauntlet to archaeologists who claim the nearby site of El-Araj is the true Bethsaida.
He believes that what they have actually found is a former military camp.
Archaeologists have been working for 32 years to prove that the site of the city cursed to destruction by Jesus once stood at the El-Tell excavation site
Though Et-Tell is over a mile from the Sea of Galilee contrary to the biblical description of Bethsaida as a place accessible by boat the dig site may have been closer in ancient times 'This is an outstanding achievement, but it is not Bethsaida mentioned in the ancient sources,' he said.
'They simply do not meet the prerequisites mentioned above, but they fit perfectly the military camp.
'I would also request that the directors of the dig at El-Araj publish a peer-reviewed article stating their discoveries.
'They failed to do it so far and everything the archaeological community knows about their finds comes from sketchy briefing by journalists in newspapers.
'This is, of course, not enough.'
The dig site at El-Araj flooded earlier this summer, stopping excavations.

BeardedMeat: The Nigeria Bar Assocation should as a matter of security concerns, relocate the venue for this year's annual conference to Abuja. But let them first of all cancel the planned event till further notice in order to observe the atmosphere, especially now it seems some branches of the association are in opposition.
The withdrawal of the invitation extended to Government Elrufai by the NBA has been politized, ethnicized and painted with even religious colour.
Elrufai like buhari is loved by the talakawas in the north, but it's not because they see the duo as good national examples to follow, it's because the duo of Elrufai and Buhari are both incurable religious bigots and ethnic champions.
For these, the NBA may come under bandits attack during the conference. Their safety in kaduna state cannot be guaranteed.
Let the leadership act fast. oga its online naaa |
