For nearly two centuries, skeptics disputed the biblical account of Jesus’ crucifixion.
First, they noted there was no good evidence the Romans crucified people.
Second, some insisted that even if Jesus had been crucified he could not have been buried in a tomb, as the Bible says he was.
He would have been treated as a common criminal and his body simply abandoned outside the city.
Some like John Dominic Crossan and his colleagues at the so-called Jesus Seminar even suggested Jesus’ body was most likely eaten by dogs.
In 1968 archaeologists found the bones of a man named Yehonanan who had obviously been crucified because there was a large nail sticking out of his heel bone. (See image.)
This important find not only confirms the Romans did crucify people, but it shows how.
Yehonanan had been nailed through the heel, as Jesus was. The bones also showed nails were driven through his wrists.
This is the only way to hold up a body, so that’s how the Romans did it.
Yehonanan’s legs also appear to be broken, which is precisely what the Bible says the soldiers did to the two thieves crucified on either side of Jesus.
Moreover, Yehonanan’s bones were found in an ossuary.
In the first century A.D., once people had been buried in a tomb, their bones would often later be removed and deposited in a stone box—an ossuary.
So Yehonanan, a crucified man and a criminal, was indeed buried in a tomb.
And if that is so, it means the biblical story of Jesus being buried in a tomb is also plausible.
Yehonanan’s case shows that contrary to the claims of John Dominic Crossan and others, there was no Roman prohibition of crucified criminals receiving a normal burial.
One by one, the historical details of the Bible—dating from the age of the patriarchs around 2000 B.C to Jesus’ own time—are being verified and illuminated by biblical archaeology.
According to the Bible, Jesus was born in Bethlehem.
But for centuries no Bethlehem was known in the whole region of Israel.
Skeptics pounced on that to say the story of Jesus’ birth was made up. Fictional location, fictional story!
Then in 2012, the Israel Antiquities Authority announced that researchers in Jerusalem discovered a clay seal with a small marking or inscription on it.
This seal impression, known as a bulla, was about half an inch across, hardly bigger than a thumbnail.
Clay seals were used in ancient times to secure correspondence or to tag certain items, like silver or wine or grain, as they were transported from one town to another.
This bulla contained a Hebrew inscription from 2,700 years ago, documenting that it came from the town of Bethlehem (Bat Lehem) in Judah, the birthplace of Jesus.
Archaeologist Eli Shukron says the bulla proves Bethlehem was an actual town in Judah, not an invented literary name.
The so-called Bethlehem seal is the oldest extrabiblical archaeological evidence of the town of Bethlehem.
“O little town of Bethlehem!”
It was from this town that the prophet Micah predicted the Messiah would come, approximately seven centuries before Jesus was born (Micah 5:2).
And the bulla dates to right around the time of Micah, between 800-700 B.C.
A king. A prophecy. A child who will change the world.
