451: The Fortress of Antonia was built on the Rock under the Dome ...
... of winter was over, Herod removed his army, and came near to Jerusalem, and pitched his camp hard by the city. Now this was the third year since he had been made king at Rome; (466) and as he removed his camp, and came near that part of the wall where it could be most easily assaulted, he pitched that camp before the temple, intending to make his attacks in the same manner as did Pompey. So he encompassed the place with three bulwarks, and erected towers, and employed a great many hands about the work, and cut down the trees that were round about the city" (Josephus, Ant 14.464-466) Titus attached the temple in 70 AD, in exactly the same way as Pompey did in 63 BC by filling in the fosse with dirt from up to 12 miles away: "In the meantime, the rest of the Roman army had, in seven days' time, overthrown [some] foundations of the tower of Antonia, and had made a ready and broad way to the temple.

453: Seal of Baalis King of Bnei-Ammon: Bible Clay Bulla and seals ...
This is an excellent example of how archeology verifies in the ground what we read in the book. Baalas is a king of Ammon that succeeded in assassinating Gedaliah, the first governor of Judea by Nebuchadnezzar after deportation of Zedekiah and the destruction of the temple of Solomon. Baalas is unknown from outside written sources but is mentioned by name in one Bible verse: "Now Johanan the son of Kareah and all the commanders of the ... "What makes this seal especially exciting is that the king who owned the seal, a certain Ba'alis, is also referred to in the Bible. When the Babylonians conquered Judah in the early sixth century B.C.E. and destroyed Jerusalem, they made Gedaliah, who was from a prominent Jerusalem family, governor of Judah. Gedaliah, however, was soon murdered, an event still commemorated in Jewish tradition by a yearly fast. The assassin was sent by none other than Ba'alis, king of the Ammonites (Jeremiah 40:13-41:2). Ba'alis's seal (shown on the cover of this ... ...

457: Who Is This Man Jesus?
Jesus was raised in the small rural town of Nazareth, where His adoptive father, Joseph, taught him to use the tools of a carpenter. It was hard work, work requiring much manual labor, skill, an eye for construction and body that could bear up to hours of sweating in the hot sun. It produced hands made coarse from touching rough wood. For many years Jesus worked in the trade of being a carpenter. At the age of 30 Jesus sought out John the Baptist, at first John refused to baptize Jesus ... Hours of agony, unable to breath, pain that was unbearable, body moisture drained, taunts and jeers from the crowd, and worse, He became sin for you and I and His Father in Heaven forsook Him.
