Many take the Bible at its word, while others insist on hard evidence, of which there is an abundance.
Now, Haaretz reports, yet another event described in the Bible has been supported by physical evidence.
It’s an earthquake that ripped apart Solomon’s Temple in the eighth century B.C.
It was described not only in the Bible but by the historian Josephus.
Haaretz reported: “While earthquakes in the Middle East and Levant are as common as flies, the ancient annals did not tend to mention them – with one glaring exception. The books of Amos, Zechariah and Ezekiel explicitly note an earthquake, which scholars agree would have been in roughly 760 B.C.E. Much later, the Roman-Jewish historian Josephus wrote in his typical hair-raising style about the same temblor and its supposed origin in the prideful King Uzziah.”
