Uriah the Hittite
Uriah is a minor character in the Bible that only shows up in a few places. He is famous for being the husband of Bathsheba and murder victim of David. But what else can we know about him? When we dig into the archaeology and text of the Bible we can see two distinct versions of Uriah emerge - which one is most accurate isn't clear but we will explore who this figure may have been. Let's dig in.

The "Jezebel Seal:" Fact or Fiction?

Some scholars have suggested the iconography is fitting for a queen and suggested this is the personal seal o...

    Amos says that they were to be punished though a Remnant of Edom was to be claimed (though this is disputed in that some Scribes say it is a Remnant of Mankind), Obadiah, on the other hand says that they will go extinct. Caleb and Othniel were Kennazites (Kennaz was the Grandson of Esau). Doeg was an Edomite. What actually did happen to them?

      During the Maccabean wars ( 167-160 BC) the Edomites were subjugated by the Jews and forced to convert to Judaism. Through it all, the Edomites maintained much of their old hatred for the Jews. When Greek became the common language, the Edomites were called Idumaeans. With the rise of the Roman Empire, an Idumaean whose father had converted to Judaism was named king of Judea. That Idumaean is known in history as King Herod the Great, the tyrant who ordered a massacre in Bethlehem in an attempt to kill the Christ child (Matthew 2:16-18). After Herod’s death, the Idumaean people slowly disappeared from history as they were absorbed into Judea and Jewish culture. God had foretold the destruction of the Edomites in Ezekiel 35, saying, “As you rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so I will deal with you; you shall be desolate, Mount Seir, and all Edom, all of it. Then they will know that I am the Lord” (Ezekiel 35:15). Despite Edom’s constant efforts to rule over the Jews, God’s prophecy to Rebekah was fulfilled: the older child served the younger, and Israel proved stronger than Edom.

Another example i live in fresno california if i planted a apple seed in africa would that seed be different no it's still an apple seed and will grow the same way if i planted that same seed in california.

Esau's seed continues Esau traits of lying, deception and dishonesty. Esau was a liar and the truth was never in him. His seed today continue to display Esau's traits.

    Why does the art at gobekli tepi have so much in common with art from around 2200 bce? Handbags? Those type of birds? That type of stone? That area? Saying that gobekli tepi is the one piece of art that stands apart as being 70 centuries older is an extraordinary claim, especially when we have such logical reasons to date it with the rest. I just need more extraordinary evidence to believe that. Also, if you theorize that white people started civilization, the theory is trash? Isn't that racist? Lol that's not why Grahams theories are bad. Grahams theories are bad because of the Chronology, and for the fact that they rest on so many other unproven theories. The younger dryas period just gets talked about like it's a fact. This is ridiculous because scientists have 69 different theories on how ice ages themselves could even be possible. So if ice age is a theory (69 theories actually), and the younger dryas is a theory that rests on one of those theories (not sure which one exactly), then why not critique this part of his theory? Based off of all the rhetoric I heard in this video I think I know exactly why you framed it this way. Gatekeepers smh.

    Any speculations on why God didn't just wipe out the Amalekites with a targeted plague or localized flood? And what's up with Moses having to hold his hands up to allow the Israelites to win in battle as described in Exodus 17? Why? It seems that God succeeded in being at war from generation to generation as conflict in the Middle East has never ceased, albeit without the Amalekites in modern times. For a creator of the universe, God sure seems to be pretty weak and powerless when it comes to things that humans care about. When he does help, it's in a substantially inefficient and impermanent way. I presume that is why all of God's promises are essentially delayed until the afterlife. He must really be powerful in that realm.
