Update for July 6th

Posted on by arenmaeir

Work is in full swing now and things are actually looking like a real excavation!
We had some very nice finds in various areas.
In Area D, there were several vessels in the 9th cent. destruction level, along with some iron objects and other finds.

Here is a complete jar in situ

If we cut Israel in half for ever people group that ever lived there it would be the size of a postage stamp. As to the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians, they have divided Israel for Peace twice already. Once to make Syria and again to make Jordan.

I have a Middle East Peace deal that will work. Send the Hebrews to Hebron and the Arabs to Arabia. Problem solved. Of course Jordan, Iraq, Afganistan, Pakistan, Iran, Lebanon and Syria would all be empty. The Arabs pretty much killed off the original inhabitants. I think they are so pissed because they were not able to kill off the Jews.

“and this year, over 100 scholars gathered to began excavating the remains of the ancient metropolis whose most famous resident was Goliath. “

David and Goliatah, one of my favorite military stories.

Goliath had a personal weapon, David had a range weapon - and so history was made.
