Ketef Hinnom – Treasures Worth More Than Gold

March 30, 2026·30 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Journey with us to Ketef Hinnom, where a restless teenager, a collapsed tomb, and two tiny silver scrolls opened a window onto the oldest biblical text ever found—and a Jerusalem far more complex than skeptics imagined. This archaeological thriller reveals how memory, mystery, and the human need for blessing converge in a burial cave that bridges ancient faith and modern identity. Join as we uncover a story that proves some words - and some blessings - can survive. Links for Additional Readings: “In Memoriam: Prof. Gabriel Barkay, Dean of Biblical Archaeology (1944–2026)” – Armstrong Institutehttps://armstronginstitute.org/1410-in-memoriam-prof-gabriel-barkay-dean-of-biblical-archaeology-1944-ndash-2026 “The Ketef Hinnom Scrolls: Earliest Biblical Text Ever Discovered!” – Armstrong Institutehttps://armstronginstitute.org/1123-the-ketef-hinnom-scrolls-earliest-biblical-text-ever-discovered “Priestly Benediction on Amulets,” Israel Museumhttps://www.imj.org.il/en/collections/198069-0Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn!Find more at j2adventures.com Hosted on Acast.
