Exploring Joshua's altar in Israel

Is it possible that Joshua's altar (Joshua 8:30-35) is still on Mount Ebal in Israel? In the 1980s, Israeli archaeologist Adam Zertal discovered and excavated a stone altar that he identified as Joshua's altar. However, many have discounted his assessment, and one of their main arguments is the altar's location. Does the Bible contradict Zertal's interpretation?

MY STUDY TOURS

[ZackVanMeter]

I’m a Christian and a firm believer in the Bible. I came to Christ by faith not by sight, but I LOVE being able to see these places I’ve read about in the Bible. Thank you so much for what you do and God bless you!

[ALTREDBAST]

I'm a visual person, plus I LOVE history. These videos show that God's word is real and true. Thank you!

[stmark]

I LOVE this!
Not to sound dramatic, but my blood feels revived and I feel energized after watching Archaeology based on stories in the bible.
THANK YOU so much for making this channel and making these videos.

Instead of receiving the curses we deserve, we receive the blessings we dont deserve. 😢 I love you Lord Jesus.

Earlier this year, I followed the "Bible in a Year" reading program. Two months ago, I began reading the Bible chronologically and, just recently, came across this scenario. I asked our Father's Holy Spirit to reveal His Word to me...and then, I came across this video today!!! Am in AWE of what God is doing thro' the videos and especially this morning as I watched. My heart is bursting with gratitude to our Father reaching many thro' your videos...A BIG THANK YOU!!!

Another wonderful video. My Daddy was a pastor for 50 yrs, & preached for almost 60 before the Lord called him home. He was a student of the Bible, & of prophecy. To be able to see these places in ur videos gives the Bible even more life. Thank you so much. God bless you!

Joel Kramer puts out the best videos on biblical archaeology. All his videos have terrific photography and explainations that are easy to understand. His book is also extremely informative and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in biblical archaeology.

Facinating. Thank you for all your efforts in revealing these sites to us and how the Bible's accuracy and Truth is unshakeable. God is and always will be with you. Stay SAFE!

[aaronlopez]

Sir congratulations on your open discussion on the findings at Mount Ebal. Although the curse tablet found should finally put an end to any discussion some people hate the truth. Thank you.

[tacticianmagician]

I love how biblically based you are in all explanations and arguments (as it should be of course) and you are a brilliant narrator. I very much look forward to future uploads!

[LCRiverside]

That just blows my mind, to find a alter from Joshua to the Lord, keep up the good work Brother, blessings to you always

[SpanishwithNeena]

Thank you so much for bringing these biblical places alive for those of us who cannot travel there. And bless you for always proclaiming the gospel.

[jamesgasaway]

I cannot say how grateful I am for this channel. The combination of rigorous academic investigation and sound Christology is a fantastic blessing. Thank you, and may God get a great name for Himself as you proclaim His truth.

[GrimesFinds]

Really love the channel. Brings the Bible to life.

[bengesell]

Fascinating. Just sitting here thinking of how often I go on sinning "so that grace may increase". May that end and grace isn't taken advantage of any longer.

[rapturebound]

Fantastic, fascinating and exciting ALL in one! Your commentary and teaching was clear, concise and superb. We serve an awesome God do we not!
