There were no seals in Palestinian Arabic.
Odd finding a seal in such a warm climate.
All bad joking aside, that’s an incredible find and it shows that there are always wonderful new (or old) items to be fascinated by.
And studying The Bible can be a lifetime endeavor
Another great find.
The bulla is approximately one-centimeter-wide, and according to the type of writing that appears on it...
... Sarah at age 90 is great with child. Is anything too hard for the Lord?
Parentheses, two parent thesis. Isaac inside.
Gotta laugh...
Graphically the exclamation mark is represented as a full stop point with a vertical line above. One theory of its origin is that it is derived from a Latin exclamation of joy (io). The modern graphical representation is believed to have been born in the Middle Ages. Medieval copyists wrote the Latin word io at the end of a sentence to indicate joy. The word io meant "hurray". Over time, the i moved above the o, and the o became smaller, becoming a point.
(.) + 90 + joy. It's all right there.
Fascinating discovery considering the times we in and the Israeli’s actively preparing the construction of the third temple....also Adenyahu sounds an aweful lot like Netanyahu
When will they find a 2,000 year old Palestinian Seal?
Ok, how about a 100 year old one.
Awesome!
