The 2,700-Year-Old Artifact That Confirms Biblical History
Description
In this presentation, Stephen Meyer explores the remarkable intersections between biblical narrative and modern archaeological discoveries in Israel. He highlights the 2005 excavation of King David's palace by archaeologist Eilat Mazar, verified through ancient clay seals called bullae that bear pre-Babylonian Hebrew script. The lecture focuses on the terrifying 701 BC invasion of the Judahite kingdom by Sennacherib, ruler of the cruel and massive Assyrian Empire. Meyer showcases how cuneiform records on the Taylor Prism perfectly corroborate the Second Book of Kings, down to the exact 46 walled cities conquered. Finally, he details the grim realities of ancient siege warfare and the brilliant counter-measures taken by King Hezekiah, who secured Jerusalem's survival by engineering an underground tunnel to redirect the Gihon Spring water supply safely inside the city walls.
