Shocking Discovery at Ancient Temple in Israel

Residue of Cannabis was found at the altar of an ancient temple in the territory of Judah. The Temple was first dated to the time of King David and Solomon, however, upon further examination the archaeologists came to a different conclusion.

Rhoda, your words towards the end of this video prompted me to open the Word. And reading 1 Chronicles about the return of the Ark of the Covenant to David’s prayer after Nathan’s prophetic confirmation of his kingdom and Messiah’s, the Holy Spirit was overwhelming me this afternoon. 😭 I cannot explain in words, especially online, but thank you!

I hope to be able to visit Israel one day. That has been my desire since I came to Christ 19 years ago.

Greetings from Texas.

We miss you Sergio & It's so good hearing from you guys after quite some time.... The best is yet to come indeed Much love

I fear the here in the US this same thing is happening. The people of America once Had Jesus and the Bible as our foundation and they are tucking away the truth. I continually pray for The Lord to come heal out land.

[DarleneSchaubel]

You are an amazing couple and well learned ! THank you for taking us on this fantastic trip with you ! GOD BLESS and Stay safe !

[mrs.c]

This is your best episode yet. You are doing a marvelous work. I live vicariously, since I have mobility issues and the trip to Israel from America doesn't come easy so I really appreciate the dedication, thought, planning and time you put on this work. But my heart swells with love for the Good Lord, who is so merciful and kind, in spite of our sinful nature. Thank you, your research and narrative work and scripture search made it extra special. Rhoda's reflection at the end of the video is priceless. God bless you and keep you!

🙌🏼 This video was truly awesome!!! Absolutely loved it. These ruins have a great lesson for us. Thank you Sergio and Rhoda for your effort and hard work in making these videos for the World. Sending hugs and blessings from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷

I love how you both love the Lord and His Word. Love watching you. Thank you for all your detailed work and helping us see the Bible come alive. God bless.

Thank you for bringing me along with you. I have wished to have at least visited Israel during my lifetime but was never able to do, as yet, in my life. First, there was a travel prohibition in 1966 due to the region's political tensions and problems obtaining a visa.. Many years later, my hope to relocate to Israel was precluded by a change of direction in my life at home, soon after which my health was found to be enough of a problem to have made my earlier plans impossible to pursue.

So, then, you can better understand how extremely thankful to you both I am for including others on your carefully studied and joy-filled exploration of important historical and religious sites in Israel. Your amazing care for and delight in one another and mutual celebration of the discoveries along the way, make you the perfect team, guiding each viewer much more as a personal friend .Your youthfulness and goodness projecting such warmth of heart, it is an honor to have been invited along with you to enjoy such an memorable virtual tour.

I absolutely love this channel.
It's amazing to see these ancient places within Israel that otherwise we may not see. God bless you Sergio and Rhoda.

[markshogan]

For years, people dismissed the Bible as a book of myths. Now we are seeing that his word is true.

[m.b.]

Thank you for such interesting and profound spiritual insights, Rhoda and Sergio. I love exploring the Holy Land with you. You ask the questions that I would ask and I am awed right along with you! ✌❤

[schindel]

This was great. A joy to learn more about the history of Gods nation. I lived every minute! Have you ever thought of doing more in depth episodes of the episodes you do where you would dive deep into Gods word and make it like a bible study? My faith has grown and my walk so much deeper with the Lord, because of all you have shown me about the old testament. Before I was taught that the OT is just a shadow, just history and holds no meaning now. Yet, I've learned so much in these videos you share! God is speaking through y'all and it is so powerful!

In the Bible, it says in Genesis chapter 1:29 "And God Said "See I have given you every herb that yields seed on the face of the earth so no surprise it was used as an offering.

[lyndabenjamin]

So true Rhoda….. one day away from God and His word leads to confusion, yet one day with The Lord is like a thousand else where away from Him. Psalm 84:10

[GoddessofSong]

Always such an absolute blessing to see Biblical places you both take us to. Thank you so much, both of you. God has truly blessed you both with a beautiful job.

[dipak]

This documentary and especially the presentation is mind-blowing. Really appreciate the research done by both of you guys. I am looking forward to more videos like these.

[jenman]

I'm so happy that I discovered your channel! I have had a great interest and curiosity in archaeology since I was a child and especially in biblical archaeology since I became a Christian almost 45 years ago. I can't wait to watch more of your adventures. Shalom!

[EdgardoDeJesus]

This is a remarkable video and explanation. I appreciate how you guys provide the facts and point out the references to the opinions or assumptions (great job). It's amazing how archeology keeps proving the Bible right over and over.
I can't agree more, when we put away the scriptures, we do it at our peril.

[adk_girl]

I enjoy watching you guys soooo much!! The Biblical history is very interesting! Thank you for sharing!! And be safe out there! ❤

Why would canabis residue, be so shocking, when found in a temple. The Israeli Govt has done much research into canabis & found it to be benificial, and that we humans have receptors for canabanoids on our cells.
