Shalom!

I agree with You!

Not only were Yosef and Miriam human beings, they Both were Sinners in Need of The SAVIOR...Jesus The Holy and Anointed One - Yeshua HaMoshiach!

Yosef being much older than the young Miriam, may have been a Widower with children, the Scriptures are silent concerning Yosef's life before he became betrothed to Miriam.

The Hebrew word for son is: "Bar" or "Ben".

I believe that the Ossuary Box and the identifying Inscription on it is Authentic.

A dear friend of mine leading a Archaeological Dig Team in Caesarea, Israel uncovered The "Pilate Plate" in 1973.

For centuries the Theologians argued that: "Pilate" was nothing more than a Myth and not a real figure in the Bible, as Nothing was noted about this Roman Governor anywhere with the exception of what is written for us in the Gospel accounts.

A closer investigation of the issue revealed that Pilate's name and position was erased from ALL Roman Records, History Books and Physical evidence because he, Pilate, was deemed a Lunatic - Nut case, he directly disobeyed Caesar.

He was dishonorably discharged from Caesar's service and the Roman army, he was placed in a Camp for disgruntled dissidents...and Nothing more was ever heard of him or his family.

The Pilate Plate: the Inscription/Identification Plate that once hung (as the Title Plate) over Pilate's Throne/Seat in the Amphitheater in Caesarea is currently on display in the Israel Museum, Jerusalem and a replica of it sits just outside of the ancient Amphitheater.

Archaeology...Is Proving that THE HOLY BIBLE IS ACCURATE 100%!

Amen & Amen.

Not only were Yosef and Miriam human beings, they Both were Sinners in Need of The SAVIOR...Jesus The Holy and Anointed One - Yeshua HaMoshiach!

I've always wondered if there were other young men named Yeshua during this period because there were certainly many others named James and Yosef. I mean, are there any records of, say, Yeshua of Jerusalem or Yeshua of (another town)? And I've also wondered how translators decided the name Yeshua was the name Jesus (not just in this antiquity instance).

You seem pretty knowledgeable about this wonderful history. Thank you.

Well, considering how one religion is based upon the belief that Mary didn't have other children, no matter what the "experts" come up with it will be called a fraud.

It amazes me how some people of all religions will ignore findings that proves them wrong. So much writing left in stone and so many spend their lives calling it lies and fraud. Anyone can buy experts to find a finding one wants to hear.

Saddest of all is that we modern Christians cannot read for ourselves the original Hebrew text with the Massorah that locks in the words and letters to learn for ourselves. The writers of the New Testment were Hebrews and while the word was written in Greek, the thoughts and idioms are Hebrew.

Course it is written that some are willing blind and others have been blinded.
