Ping, if you haven’t seen this yet. I searched, but I couldn’t find it.
It’s funny how so many relics have those little handles on them, and on both sides.
Looks like democrats have been running the place lately.
I believe David reigned 40 years. Difficult to know how they can pinpoint the find to that narrow a time frame. How do they know it wasn’t the palace of Solomon, rehoboam, or for that matter Saul?
The canaanite theory sounds like a desperate attempt though to deflect it from the possibility of a Davidic king...which it very well could be.
Fascinating story...thanks.
After it’s all cleared and ready for the public the Muzzzies will want to destroy it.
King David’s palace, possibly. more than your average fixer-upper.
