  • Last Week the History Channel Ran a Two Hour Presentation of a Film by Simcha Jacobovici on the Exodus Entitled the Exodus Decoded
    September 3, 2006 The Exodus Last week the History Channel ran a two hour presentation of a film by Simcha Jacobovici on the Exodus entitled The Exodus Decoded. The film began with the question, “Did it happen?” I watched the film and realized that there were several things that were impressive. First of all was the fact that James Cameron, a Hollywood awarding winning director / filmmaker, had produced the program. During the presentation Cameron appeared sev- eral times with his own comments about the work that Jocobovici had done. What was equally impressive was the fact that there was a definite admission that God was behind these events. Not the usual sort of thing you hear from the Hollywood crowd. Jocobovici, like many others, linked the events to natural disasters that are recorded in ancient history but always included God as the force that was behind the events. The end result was the result of over ten years of investigative journalism that did much to reinforce belief in the divine being and the validity of the Bible. There were some errors in the film however and some of the explanations were based on conclusions that Jocobovici had made but it was able to stimulate some thought. One of the errors was in the length of time that passed from Abraham to Moses. This was given as 130 years in the film. We are told that on the day that the Israelites actually left Egypt, they had been in the country for 430 years (Ex 12.41). This is not an approximate time.

  • The Lost Tomb of Jesus”
    The Annals of Applied Statistics 2008, Vol. 2, No. 1, 1–2 DOI: 10.1214/08-AOAS162 © Institute of Mathematical Statistics, 2008 EDITORIAL: STATISTICS AND “THE LOST TOMB OF JESUS” BY STEPHEN E. FIENBERG Carnegie Mellon University What makes a problem suitable for statistical analysis? Are historical and reli- gious questions addressable using statistical calculations? Such issues have long been debated in the statistical community and statisticians and others have used historical information and texts to analyze such questions as the economics of slavery, the authorship of the Federalist Papers and the question of the existence of God. But what about historical and religious attributions associated with informa- tion gathered from archeological finds? In 1980, a construction crew working in the Jerusalem neighborhood of East Talpiot stumbled upon a crypt. Archaeologists from the Israel Antiquities Author- ity came to the scene and found 10 limestone burial boxes, known as ossuaries, in the crypt. Six of these had inscriptions. The remains found in the ossuaries were re- buried, as required by Jewish religious tradition, and the ossuaries were catalogued and stored in a warehouse. The inscriptions on the ossuaries were catalogued and published by Rahmani (1994) and by Kloner (1996) but there reports did not re- ceive widespread public attention. Fast forward to March 2007, when a television “docudrama” aired on The Dis- covery Channel entitled “The Lost Tomb of Jesus”1 touched off a public and reli- gious controversy—one only need think about the title to see why there might be a controversy! The program, and a simultaneously published book [Jacobovici and Pellegrino (2007)], described the “rediscovery” of the East Talpiot archeological find and they presented interpretations of the ossuary inscriptions from a number of perspectives.

  • Assessing the Lost Gospel Part 1: the Chronicle of Pseudo-Zachariah Rhetor – Content and Context
    Assessing The Lost Gospel Part 1: The Chronicle of Pseudo-Zachariah Rhetor – Content and Context Richard Bauckham Jacobovici and Wilson have chosen to make their case that Joseph and Aseneth is a coded history of Jesus and Mary Magdalene not from study of any of the Greek recensions of the work, but from the Syriac version in the late sixth-century manuscript of the Chronicle of Pseudo-Zachariah Rhetor (British Library MS Add. 17202). This version was undoubtedly translated from a Greek original, but the manuscript is considerably earlier than any of the extant manuscripts of Joseph and Aseneth in Greek. It is also of special interest because of the context in which it is found in Pseudo-Zachariah, preceded by two letters that explain how it came to be translated from Greek and which speak of the ‘inner meaning’ of the work, though the concluding part of the second of these letters, where the ‘inner meaning’ was evidently explained, is now tantalizingly missing from the manuscript. Jacobovici and Wilson argue that both Moses of Ingila, who translated the work into Syriac and wrote something, now lost, about its inner meaning, and Pseudo-Zachariah himself, who included this material in his compilation of significant texts, knew that Joseph and Aseneth was a coded history of Jesus and Mary Magdalene. This means that several aspects of Pseudo-Zachariah’s work and of the context in which Joseph and Aseneth occurs in it are important for assessing the claims made in The Lost Gospel. (1) The Title In the manuscript Pseudo-Zachariah’s work has a title, which translators have rendered: ‘A Volume of Records of Events Which Have Happened in the World’ (Hamilton & Brooks 11) or ‘Volume of Narratives of Events That Have Occurred in the World’ (Greatrex 75).

  • Downloaded from the “Statlib” Website [Feuerverger (2008)]
    The Annals of Applied Statistics 2008, Vol. 2, No. 1, 3–54 DOI: 10.1214/08-AOAS99 c Institute of Mathematical Statistics, 2008 STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF AN ARCHEOLOGICAL FIND1 By Andrey Feuerverger University of Toronto In 1980, a burial tomb was unearthed in Jerusalem containing ossuaries (limestone coffins) bearing such inscriptions as Yeshua son of Yehosef, Marya, Yoseh—names which match those of New Testa- ment (NT) figures, but were otherwise in common use. This paper discusses certain statistical aspects of authenticating or repudiating links between this find and the NT family. The available data are laid out, and we examine the distribution of names (onomasticon) of the era. An approach is proposed for measuring the “surprisingness” of the observed outcome relative to a “hypothesis” that the tombsite belonged to the NT family. On the basis of a particular—but far from uncontested—set of assumptions, our measure of “surprisingness” is significantly high. 1. Introduction and summary. In March 1980, the Solel Boneh Con- struction Company interrupted excavation work at an apartment site com- plex in the East Talpiyot neighbourhood of Jerusalem, and reported to Is- rael’s Department of Antiquities and Museums that it had accidentally un- earthed a previously unknown entrance to a burial cave. This tomb is located approximately 2.5 kilometers south of the site of the Second Temple in the Old City of Jerusalem, destroyed by the Romans in 70 CE.2 Shortly after its discovery, this burial site was examined and surveyed and salvage excavations were carried out. Within this cave a number of ossuaries3 were found, some bearing inscriptions, and these were published arXiv:0804.0079v1 [stat.AP] 1 Apr 2008 Received April 2007; revised December 2007.

  • A Preliminary Report of a Robotic Camera Exploration of a Sealed 1St Century Tomb in East Talpiot, Jerusalem
    A Preliminary Report of a Robotic Camera Exploration of a Sealed 1st Century Tomb in East Talpiot, Jerusalem James D. Tabor, University of North Carolina at Charlotte [email protected] This is a preliminary scientific report on the unprecedented exploration by robotic cameras of a sealed 1st century tomb located in East Talpiot (Armon HaNetziv), a southeast Jerusalem suburban neighborhood established in 1973. The tomb is presently located 2.1m under the basement floor of a modern condominium building. Our exploration was carried out under excavation license (G73/2009) issued by the Israel Antiquities Authority in 2009 and subsequently renewed in 2010 and 2011. Rami Arav of the University of Nebraska at Omaha and I are co-directors and the University of North Carolina at Charlotte is the academic sponsor.1 Associated Producers Ltd. of Toronto obtained funding and provided technical expertise, equipment, filming, and other vital logistical assistance.2 1 Janet Levy, chair of the Department of Anthropology acted as our supervising consultant. Our license covers exploration of two adjacent tombs, the one reported here, presently under a condominium patio, briefly examined in 1981 but never excavated, and another, less than 45 meters distant, presently in a garden area between buildings, that was excavated in 1980 and later sealed up with a concrete cover by the condominium residents. We have not yet re-examined the second tomb. The coordinates for the “patio” tomb are 172400 128800 and for the “garden” tomb 17249 12929. The published coordinates for the latter are incorrectly printed in Amos Kloner and Boaz Zissu, The Necropolis of Jerusalem in the Second Temple Period, Interdisciplinary Studies in Ancient Culture and Religion 8 (Leuven—Dudley, MA: Peeters, 2007), pp.

The Underground Railroad and U.S Civil War exemplify broader, curriculum standards-based topics depicting slavery as peripheral to heroic deeds and memorialized battles. Students may hear about slavery in celebratory terms. For instance, students “often learn about liberation before they learn about enslavement; they learn to revere the Constitution before learning about the troublesome compromises that made its ratification possible.

  • Christians at Pompeii
    1 Pompeii: Reassessing the Evidence for the Importance of the Christians at Pompeii Note: All illustrations are taken from the public domain using the Google ‘Images’ section and correctly following the steps for a request. The short answer to the question many ask ‘Were there Christians at Pompeii?” must be yes. With two verified pieces of graffiti, one referring to Christians, the other to Christ, no other explanation can be possible. Other evidence exists but appears to be not as strong, is frequently ambiguous and can have other explanations. A more important question remains; what does the evidence reveal about the beginnings of Christianity? The short answer must be a good deal as some of that evidence may radically change how we see Christianity’s origins. 2 Christianity remains the world’s most influential belief system. It has survived Communism and the rise of its major religious rival Islam, a belief system which was greatly influenced by Christianity. Despite this, very little evidence emerges about Christianity from the time of Jesus and of those who were the first generation of Christians, those who had living memories of him and his disciples. What written evidence we have clearly emerges as extremely biased. The letters of Paul and his contemporaries are of course extremely slanted towards favourable images. A less obvious problem is that these writings are much concerned with spiritual matters. Some ideas about how ordinary Christians lived, thought, practiced their religion and were seen by their neighbours and overlords can be gleaned from these texts, but not all that much.
