In this episode of Digging Deeper, Barry Britnell and Dan Kingsley discuss the fascinating world of ossuaries—stone boxes used primarily in Jewish burial practices during the time of Christ. From the ossuary of Caiaphas, the high priest who condemned Jesus, to the discovery of a heel bone pierced by a Roman crucifixion nail, these artifacts offer powerful connections to biblical history.
Join Barry and Dan as they explore burial customs from the time of Jesus, how archaeology sheds light on New Testament culture, and how these discoveries reinforce the historical reliability of Scripture. Plus, hear insights from Dr. Scott Stripling during a tour of the Israeli Antiquities Authority's warehouse in Jerusalem on what these ancient remains teach us about faith, death, and eternal hope.
