Aired Sunday, January 6, 2019   ·   12:00 AM CST   ·   43 minutes

Jerusalem – Researches recently uncovered a 2600-year-old cuneiform tablet north of Tel Aviv and believe it confirms the presence of Babylonian settlement in Samaria just after Israel was taken captive. On today’s program, host Brent Nagtegaal looks at that claim, as well as a recent report in Haaretz detailing the proof of a massive earthquake referenced in the books of Amos and Zechariah.
