For Dr. Kennedy and his colleagues, I think it is fitting to say, "Well done, good and faithful servant!"
This was a fabulous video! It's so encouraging to hear about these archeological finds that validate the historicity of the Bible. Thank you both!
.
Dr Kennedy is very prepared and it was all very interesting. ((But the other didn’t talk much and kept sipping from the black cup ..so annoying ! )

He didn't dominate. He is there for us to learn what Dr. Kennedy has to teach us.
@@pantaleologoluso9593 What lol
LOVE that you provide the Table of Contents and the Chapter links! It helps a person be intentional about getting specific facts. Thanks for the excellent, organized presentation by Dr. Kennedy.
excellent material thanks for having Dr Kennedy on
This is so amazing!! I fully believe the infallibility of the Word of God and I love that these findings show its accuracy. Wonderful.
There was a flood and a man got two of every animal on a boat sorry but what the fuck I just can’t comprehend that yes elephants hop on snakes come on ok ok rhinos get on the boat no rhinos don’t attack the edge of the boat that can def hold up two of every animal and still ride the boat for tons of months without us sinking and no animals dying or killing each other also we can’t eat anything so we’re gonna be fine. I’m sorry but I can’t comprehend that also why couldn’t someone have made those stroys into life long before the first testament was written couldn’t they have been part of life for some people before the Bible like I just don’t understand any bit of that
@@kyekruchoski1457 stroys? Are are you talking about dude.
Where the ark story is concerned, the story is told and retold in countless ancient cultures, so it seems almost impossible for there not to have been some catastrophic events that shook the world at that time. As to the animals in the ark...why didn't they kill each other or smash the ark up? Noah, took the very youngest of the species, cubs, chicks, foals; they would eat less, live together reasonably amicably as has been demonstrated countless times in RUclips videos ☺️, take up less space, and be generally healthier and live longer. It would be illogical to take full grown creatures. Did it happen exactly as it states in the Bible? That's for individuals to decide for themselves.

WOW. This video was such a blessing! Thank you for sharing all of these!!
You bet. I am glad they're helpful
@Ahh it’s Katie There was a flood and a man got two of every animal on a boat sorry but what the fuck I just can’t comprehend that. yes elephants hop on snakes come on ok ok rhinos get on the boat no rhinos don’t attack the edge of the boat that can def hold up two of every animal and still ride the boat for tons of months without us sinking and no animals dying or killing each other also we can’t eat anything so we’re gonna be fine.

@@kyekruchoski1457 the Bible don't say the ark hold a pair of every animal! it says , it says of every kind!! The dog kind , the cat kind we don't need the lion the tiger the leopard as long as we have the kind you have to think a with a open mind my friend.
Love the content and love what you and your counterparts are doing to highlight the authenticity of the Bible. God bless to keep up the amazing work!
Wow! Awesome job Dr. Kennedy! I really appreciate your job and dedication! Amazing!!
Thank you for all.
May you be well.
Titus Kenned (roughly) "Modern archaeologists have become more skeptical of the bible as a historical document." I appreciate the honesty.
Loved seeing the Sennacherib Prism at University of Chicago's Oriental Institute, a treasure trove of John D. Rockefeller's sponsorship of archaeology, with whole floors exhibiting things from Babylon, Assyria, Egypt, etc. I saw Queen Esther's Throne there. Then deep dish pizza. Did NOT love memorizing all of the Kings of Judah and Israel and their years of reign in 10th Grade Old Testament History Class, which turned out to be harder than anything I had taken at the graduate level. Also loved visiting the University of Michigan Library to see 3rd or 4th century copies of the Greek New Testament, then going to used book stores in Ann Arbor back in the day. Looking back on my education, it was pretty solid.

Great video, well presented and very encouraging. Dr Kennedy has the ability to bring the Bible to life and present facts in such an interesting way that it's easier to remember. Thank you both so much ❤ I just subscribed.
Excellently done, interesting, and really informative.
Wow, such an interesting interview! Thank you both.
Once again, truly fascinating and so encouraging! Thank you for the ways in which this was structured to show the breadth of evidence that spans the OT, even the minute details. So amazing! Very thankful for your Ministries and sharing these discoveries with us.
New Testament isn’t real scripture so the term Old Testament is a false branding of Jewish scripture.
I have two of Mr Kennedy’s books. Great reading !
Great stuff gentlemen. Thank you so much 🙂
Titus looks like he's secretly a super hero. You can't tell me he's not the great grand kid of Indiana Jones
The biblical narrative is truth beloved family 🕯️
Psalms 119:130 The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.
Thank you so very much 🙏😊!
You are just bringing up mythological stories. You are just making it all up as you go along.
Excellent video. Very useful.
Great Stuff. Praise God! In Jesus; Name. Amen. Thank you. 🙏
Wonderful, thanks so much.
I have heard of one or two of these finds but not all. Well worth watching!!
What a great video Shawn and thank you Titus.
You bet!
Wonderful! Thanks a lot 💐
Yes! Thank you!
Thank you, gentlemen!
He attends the same church in Olympia that I briefly checked out!! It’s so cool seeing him here 😅
wow, this is gold.
Great video!
Great video full of data and profesional job, delaightful for christians and unbelievers. Wonderfull, thanks a lot.
most of these i have heard of, but some not. Thank You so much for sharing.
I am blown away by this..incredible ❤
Titus is like Clark Kent 😂 love you guys thanks for spreading biblical knowledge
This is amazing !
Great evidence. I'd be interested to hear Dr Kennedy's response to the arguments for a late exodus as put forward on Inspiring Philosophy's channel.
I'm curious about that too. That new 'curse tablet' discovery would have implications for that question as well if it turns out to be legit.
Joel Kramer has a great video on this topic on his channel Expedition Bible.
This is so cool! I want to see the black oblisk of shamaneser III now
It would have been even better if you had included pictures of the archeological finds discussed.
Amen !!! Great job! 🎉❤
Awsome video I love seeing evidence like this very encouraging to see evidence of our God thank you Lord ❤
Blessings! 🤍🕊
With loving respect, showing the evidence of each artifact would have brought this talk to life.
This is really cool
Awesome stuff!
I will be interested to read in more depth. I am not sure about the logic given for '6' but realise you just had a minute or so to tell us about each one!
The Dead Sea Scrolls may be the greatest archaeological find for the Bible of all-time.
Why? I do not know much about the DSS.
Need to discuss influence of Post Modernism in Academia on Scripture.
Great suggestion!
@@SeanMcDowell Thanks. Blessings.
Thank you 🙏
Awesome as always, you have great content
Btw
I will be walking Biola tomorrow with my son 🤞 he’s the current jserra water polo goalie and wants to check out the school and pool
This was so cool. I would love to know what you both thought of Ron Wyatt's discoveries.
Great vid!
"But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase."
-Daniel 12:4
This was pretty cool
Fascinating. 😮✝️🙏❤️🙌
Love it!
Thanks, I just requested a copy of Dr. Kennedy’s book from the library. This story reminds me of Velikosvsky’s interpretation of Exodus. Please I am not suggesting an equivalence between Dr. Kennedy’ solid science and Velikovsky’s story telling. It’s been sixty years since I read Velikovsky, his books are still on my shelf, and I shall revisit them. Thanks again.
I was really hoping for something like this cuz I was doubting
Doubting what
What every naysayer and skeptic should watch. I need no proof as I know my Lord lives.
The Bible confirms the archeology :-)
And vice versa
You get a star! Of David
Anyone else watch the Paulogia video?
I wish you would have shown us the evidence more. Great information.
Could we please have the timestamps for each of the 20?
36:03 Dr. Kennedy should have titled his book, Finding Nebo.
Amazing stuff! No doubt that God exists!
@The city of the King, Paslms 122:6.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
they will prosper that love you.
God bless you on your journey!!!
Great stuff! Thanks! Next time please show the item without text over it.
@7:00
Inflation / devalue currency - it’s older than we thought
Just like Jesus prediction In the last days there will be many signs! and Wanders !
Jesus isn’t supported by Jewish scripture.
i thought that the exodus happened during the bronze age collapse in the 13th cent as egypt's decline facilitated the escape. evidence for israel in the 15th cent suggests that israelite identity started to form in canaan before the exodus.
the entry of escaped semitic slaivs from egypt was how yahwism was brought into the land but did not completely replace canaanite religion. that set the stage for the conflict between worshippers of God and those of baal that continued right until the exile.
What do you, Sean, and Titus think of the work of Dr. David Rohl of 'Pharaohs and Kings' and the '"Paterns of Evidence" series on the Exodus?
That's been debunked numerous times. If there was an Exodus, the late date under Ramses II is the only case
How many Biblical archeology discoveries are actually peer reviewed? Just curious.
there will be more finds.
This video has a SERIOUS DEFECT:
Pictures of all of the artifacts should be included.
@5:20 the Ur-nammu code is much older than the Code of Hammurabi by 300 years and the eye for a eye comes from it.
Papyrus Brooklyn: The critique of the Exodus narrative is NOT that there were no Israelites living in Egypt at the time. It’s that there is no archeological evidence that Israelites lived in Egypt in the high numbers necessary for the Exodus narrative to be true. The evidence works against the Exodus narrative.
Any thoughts on the authenticity of the tomb of Joseph in Avaris?
In the end times nothing will be left unrevealed. The end times are here. 🙏👑
20:20. When or what translation was it corrected and what translation still has it wrong?
❤️❤️
Mashiach son of David is coming soon👀🙌🙌
Have you managed to find the volcano they were walking towards?
Exodus 13:21 And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night:
Dear Sean:
If you tried to explore if there were archeological findings contradicting any of the stories written on the Bible...
YES, there are, plenty!
Find out what falsifies your assumption, not only what agrees with it.
😂
Your message prompted me to look into this. Doing a google search for "archeology that disproves/contradicts the bible" turns up with article after article questioning this. Over and over I'm finding articles that conclude the archeological record backs up the bible. These are articles from Smithsonian magazine, Newsweek, PBS and The New York times. Can you point me to a specific claim of something that contradicts the bible? I'd like to check it out. Thanks.
What were the findings that contradict the Bible, I'm just curious
Interesting, anytime some one tries speak the truth about God or the Bible or has evidence to verify anything having to do with the Bible, the enemy( the devil) is right there to speak against it and mock them.
@@danielfortonforton223 Interesting. There are no gods or devil's talking, but humans talking in their names...
Lame supernatural fauna we made in our image!
Nice information. I disagree with your dating of Shoshenq I... he was much later than 925... And, if you map out his route from his inscription in Egypt, he didn't attack Judah... he avoided them.
Can I suggest a project. A book that lists verses and connects them to archeological evidence so that any reader or preacher can reference the evidence for a passage easily. I would suggest a web site that you could type in the passage you are looking at and it can be continually updated with links to evidences related to that passage. I would be happy to help with such a project. If you would be willing to offer some skills or work, please add a reply. If such a thing exists already, please let me know and publicise it in a reply.
Great idea. The closest I’m aware of is the archaeological study Bible. In fact, there’s two bibles like this.
2 Kings Chapter 3 and Moabite Stone: It appears to have been a stalemate. Israel won a tactical victory, but failed to conquer Moab. The Moabite stone probably convers Moab's reconquest of territories lost to israel. So the Moabite Stone is covering events that take place shortly after 2 Kings 3
The assignment of common indigenous names in all slave nations , was a practice in all antiquity ,throughout to Slavery in America!
The Bible Unearthed: Archaeology's New Vision of Ancient Israel and the Origin of Its Sacred Texts by Finkelstein & Silberman is an interesting read.
One can find most anything to fit into a preconceived theory or story that is part of the persons Religious, Political and cultural history.
The Creation, Garden of Eden/Adam and the Flood are stark examples.
I am not in anyway denying the reality or existence of those facts, just the understanding, interpretation and dogmatic variation the whole Biblical truth.
Yep. This must be what “making stuff up as you go along” looks like; huh!?!
I wander if Dr Titus Kennedy has examined the evidence of Mt. Sinai being in Saudi Arabia. At jaba al laws there is a possible alter site where the Hebrews worshiped the golden calf, as well as many other structures and inscriptions that match up with the book of Exodus.
No one will cover this, as the implication's are very dangerous. Plus western archeologists can't get near the site(s).
@@Flagrum3 what would be dangerous if someone study's the site? I think people been getting access over there recent years.
@@whatistruth560 Not authentic archeologists who can verify whatever already found. Most people dismiss what evidence has been discovered by amateurs. The danger is in the fact the evidence points to the Israelites claim to the land. All the land which is now Saudi Arabia. Those amateurs found scratched into the rocks many things, a minora for instance, and more importantly the etchings of feet, or more precise sandals with ancient Hebrew markings alongside the sandal etchings. These etchings are found criss-crossing all through present day Saudi Arabia.
@@Flagrum3 I believe you and believe that is the site of mountain of God that Moses lead the Israelites from Egypt. I was just lissining about how they found a seal of Isaiah by the city of David of the times of Hezekiah if I'm not mistaken plus evedence of the exodus happened.
@@whatistruth560 Well the scarabs (seals) they found for both Isaiah and Hezekiah, although important and another find backing the Bible, are centuries after the exodus and the wandering. Also don't forget the city of Jericho, although secularists will deny it being the Jericho of Joshua's time, all the evidence points to exactly that. Anyone with a truthful heart cannot deny it. Getting back to the topic, have you seen the videos of what appears to be chariot wheels, axles on the sea floor of the crossing site? (The Gulf of Aqaba).
Both Israel and Ugarit had a highest god called El. They shared seventy "sons of El." called by similar divine titles. Both religions talk about the multi-headed chaos dragon and use the same cognate titles for him. In both religions, their divine beings met on a mountain called by the same name, in tents called by the same name, in a well-watered mountain at the source of several rivers watering the earth- upon which the temples of both religions were connected to mimic a heavenly archetype. Ugarit 6000-1200BC Israel 1300BC -. How would this archaeological finding support the Bible as being authentic?
10:30 what the actual hell?
The greatest proof that the Christian scriptures have any significance is the fruit that is revealed through the followers of The Way.
thumbnail reminds me of Capturing Christianity lol
Need pictures next time! : )
Kennedy teaches at Biola University which requires that its faculty agree with its "Doctrinal Statement". See the "Theological Positions" part of their website.
This is from the HR section of their website.
"Prospective and existing employees must affirm that their personal theological beliefs are in agreement with the Biola Doctrinal Statement. A prospective or an existing employee's church affiliation will be considered in determining his or her understanding of and compliance with Biola's theological position."
Kennedy has no choice or academic freedom. The conclusions he makes are the only conclusions he can make without jeopardizing his job and income. Under these conditions he CANNOT engage in legitimate academic research. He can only find ways to try to justify the pre-existing conclusions of the Doctrinal Statement.
If he were to analyze the latest and best archeological evidence, only to find that it indeed contradicted the Doctrinal Statement, he would either have to hide this conclusion from his peers and superiors, or he would have to have the courage to state his contradictory conclusions and most likely lose his job and his income.
Point of fact - the canaanites were aware of Yahweh and had him part of their pantheon before the historical monarchy
Where is your evidence
This point of fact is a fact looking for an argument, what’s the problem? Everyone knows that Yah was a local deity in Canaan but that does not discredit Yahwism, it just means that Canaanites were syncretists and collected gods for good luck, the way some Israelites collected idols like Bel.
Everyone new about the creator of everything but just like xtians they think they need a mediator which is very popular in pagan practice.
You are confusing El and Yahweh.
