the Bible is the most historically accurate book ever penned hundreds of ancient discoveries verify its accuracy and here's a list of nine of those number one the pilot inscription in 1961 in an Italian sponsored dig in Caesarea archaeologists uncovered a stone that had a Latin inscription on it that said Pontius Pilate Asst prefect of Judea that Pilate is mentioned in the Gospel accounts on several occasions you read in John 19 29 Pilate then went out to them and said what accusation do you bring against this man they find verifying the New Testament statement that Pilate
was the prefect of Judea discovery number two Hezekiah tunnel in 2nd chronicles 32 30 we read a statement that says this same Hezekiah also stopped the water outlet of upper Gehan and brought the water by tunnel to the west side of the City of David you would think that if a king had dug a tunnel under Jerusalem we would be able to find it and that's exactly what we find a huge tunnel that matches perfectly the biblical description of Hezekiah tunnel discovery number 3 the Taylor prism in 1830 a man by the name of Robert
Taylor uncovered a 15 inch tall clay cylinder there are five hundred lines of written text on this clay cylinder and it was written it was put there by a man named Sennacherib well Sennacherib was a king of Assyria that you read about in the Bible on the clay cylinder here's what Sennacherib said as to Hezekiah the Jew he didn't submit to my yoke I laid seeds to 46 of his strong cities walled forts and to the countless small villages in their vicinity and conquered them by means of well stamped earth ramps and battering rams it's
interesting when you compare Sennacherib statement of what he did with the biblical statement of what he did in second chuckles thirty to one we read Sennacherib king of Assyria came and entered Judah he encamped against the fortified cities exactly like Sennacherib says he did discovery number four the David inscription for many years people said that David was a figment of the Israelite imagination because no archaeological finds had been discovered that verified his existence and yet in 1993 in Tel Dan there was a man who was working named Abraham Byron who discovered a stone and on
that stone was the inscription of an Israelite King from the house of David and the Bible uses that very designation in first Kings 12 verse 19 the David inscription validated the biblical text number five the Moabite stone found in 1868 it's a black basalt stone that measures about three and a half feet high two feet wide on that stone Misha the king of Moab cut lines of text in about 850 BC Misha mentions that Omri was the king of Israel who had a press Moab but then Misha says he saw his desire upon anri's son
and upon his house the Mesha stone cites Omri as the king of Israel just as first Kings 16 21 through 28 indicates furthermore it mentions a Murray's son a hab in close connection with the Moabitess just as second Kings three four through six does in addition both the stele and second Kings three four through six lists Mesha as the king of Moab and it further names the Israelite tribe of GAD and the Israelite God Yahweh another validation of the biblical accuracy number six the Nazareth house in 2008 a skeptic named Rene song wrote a book
that he claimed destroyed Christianity once Aperol he said that Jesus could not have existed because there was no town of Nazareth in the first century in 2009 an archeological discovery was announced that they had found a small house in Nazareth that dated to the first century the house was only about 900 feet square total but it was large enough to provide evidence of the Bible's accuracy number seven the cyrus cylinder in 1879 hormuz rasam found a small clay cylinders about nine inches long and it's now in the British Museum of Natural History in the ancient
city of Babylon he uncovered this and this clay cylinder was commissioned by King Cyrus and it had an inscription on it about his victory over the city of Babylon and his policy toward the nation's he had captured and the text said I returned to these sacred cities on the other side of the Tigris the sanctuaries of which have been in ruins for a long time the images which used to live therein and established for them permanent sanctuaries the policy often hailed as Cyrus's Declaration of Human Rights coincides perfectly with the biblical account of the rulers
actions in which Cyrus decreed that the Temple in Jerusalem would be rebuilt and that all the exiled israelites who wish to join in the venture had his permission and blessings to do so you'd read that in Ezra chapter 1 verses 1 through 11 this little 9 inch long clay cylinder stands as impressive testimony that validates the biblical accuracy number 8 the discovery of the pool of Siloam in 2004 a majestic stepped entrance to the pool of Siloam was uncovered in the area known as the City of David in John chapter 9 verse 7 we read
that jesus said to a blind man go wash in the pool of Siloam just translated sent so he went and washed and came back seeing validation once again of the biblical accuracy number nine the Hittite tablets for many years people made fun of the biblical text and said it mentioned people in places that never did exist one of those groups was the nation of the Hittites but in 1906 hugo Winkler was doing some excavation in the Turkish city of bog has coin there he uncovered ten thousand clay tablets that documented the history of the Hittite
nation and they discovered that that area was the capital of the Hittite nation in Joshua chapter 11 we read about the Canaanites in the east and the west and the amorite and the hittite in 1906 hugo Winkler discovered the hittite nation that the Bible had mentioned some three thousand years before the Bible is the most historically accurate book ever penned you
