On Easter Sunday, Christians celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and though belief in the resurrection requires faith, there is a growing body of archeological evidence that corroborates the biblical account of his final days.
Biblical archeologists are drawn to Israel, hoping to find overlap between faith and historical evidence through carefully curated research.
“Archeology is an independent source of very valuable information that sheds light on all sorts of different aspects relating to the final days of Jesus,” said Dr. Shimon Gibson, professor of archeology and history at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, to Zenger News.
