		<description><![CDATA[In 2010, in a sealed tomb in Jerusalem, I was involved, along with Emmy award winning filmmaker Simcha Jacobovici and archaeologist Rami Arav, in an unprecedented set of new discoveries. We immediately called in James Charlesworth and a number of other prominent scholars as consultants. This tomb, less than 200 feet away from the controversial [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Many readers will remember the sensational story that broke into the news in March of this year regarding a series of &#8220;lead codices,&#8221; that some had claimed dated back to the 1st century and might prove to be some of our earliest Christian documents. Since that time much has been revealed about these artifacts and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am posting this response by Simcha Jacobovici to critics of his &#8220;Nails of the Cross&#8221; documentary that aired on the History Channel in the USA  and most recently in Israel. His thesis: that two crucifixion nails, most likely those used to crucify Jesus of Nazareth, were found in a Jerusalem tomb belonging to the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This article by Prof. Geza Vermes on Herod the Great is worth a careful read, for the sources as much as Vermes&#8217;s interpretation. The Christian world has inherited a wholly negative image of king Herod (74/72-4 BCE), during whose reign Jesus was born (Matthew 2:1, Luke, 1:5). Matthew&#8217;s legendary account, Nativity plays and Christian imagination [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Predictably one of the more controversial topics in my book The Jesus Dynasty is my discussion in chapter 3 titled &#8220;An Unnamed Father of Jesus?&#8221; in which I treat the &#8220;Jesus son of Pantera/Pantira&#8221; traditions. The topic has generated more than one sensational headline as well as lots of disdainful treatment, particularly from evangelical Christian [...]]]></description>
