Searching for the earliest mention of the Israelite's God, 'Yahweh.'

Travel with me to Sudan to investigate an inscription that has been identified as the oldest archaeological record of the name, Yahweh, the God of Israel.

I love it when science and archeology finally catch up with the Bible

[yogachris]

It says somewhere in the Bible that the stones will cry out, and indeed they are. Thanks to amazing archaologist like you. Thank you so much.

Hallelujah הַלְלוּ יָהּ (hallū yāh), a joyous praise in song to Yahweh. It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! Psalm 100:1-5 🕊❤️

Fascinating. I just discovered your channel and can’t get enough. Brings the Bible to life. A real faith builder.

[JesusismyKingofkings]

Wow is right!!! What a magnificent discovery!!! I can't thank you enough for letting us be a part of this incredible discovery!!! Praise Yahweh!!! Thank you soooo much!!!💜✝️💜

[johnduvalcaffery]

I am not at all religious but even from a secular point of view this Channel is amazing. So detailed. You do a great job of presenting historical facts.

[deniseroe]

Why isn’t this in a museum? Amazing and inspiring. I almost get giddy when what we have always known and believed is proven by secular science. God bless

[samandnia]

Wow Amazing! I would love to see that. Thank you for the video.

At 5:26 the inscription is shown to be incomplete due to erosion. However the letters Y H W are good enough to identify the God of these nomads. Interesting point that they are described as Nomads because at that time they hadn't taken over the land of Canaan. This is massive !!!

[spiritwardiaries]

It is great to see so much archeology coming to light. It's time.

I'm glad I'm a Nomad of YHWH, as a Christian I am a sojourner through this wilderness called life, with my garment of flesh still stained with sin but inwardly clothed in righteousness, Jesus Christ righteousness. A garment of salvation. For His name is written in my heart.

As I look forward to my promises my Lord and Saviour has promised me, I will obey His commands, I love His Laws, they are like fountains of life to my soul in this dry and parched wilderness, being led like a sheep by my Shepherd.

For He is my shield, my fortress, my rock. His steadfast love endures forever.

I eagerly wait my Lord's return in the sky, to be transformed in a blink of an eye, my corrupted body being transformed into an incorruptible body, to be finally free from all sin and corruption. I will praise His name for eternity in His house.

But till that day of glory, I will obey, I will repent, I will be lowly and meek, I will lament my sins and have a broken spirit for my Lord who sits on His throne loves a broken and a contrite heart. He binds up my wounds and wipes away every tear.

To God be the glory, all honour to my Lord and Saviour. Amen.

Can I just appreciate that you camped in the desert for three days and traveled for more time in order to produce a >7 min video? God bless you, sir!

[boshman]

I love history. And I feel like we are losing appreciation for everything that has happened before us, repeating the same old mistakes and patterns of sin. Thanks for the content!

[saltwaterlou]

As a lover of history, I loved this so much so, that I purchased the book reference in the video and had a tattoo of the hieroglyph put on my forearm. It has been such a conversation piece and way to introduce the lost to God! I hope one day to visit this site and see it with my own eyes. Thanks for sharing this!!

[Ranjanwatson]

Excellent content. Every time when I watch Expedition Bible, it increases my faith in Jesus our Lord. The production quality and content are simply excellent.

[joegun]

Man, I love your channel. For me the most interesting part about this inscription is that originally the Hebrews did not write God's name with vowels, so there was a lot of discussion about the correct pronunciation. But since the Egyptians wrote their words with vowels we now have an archeological proof of the correct spelling outside of the scripture.

Edith: It is "vowels" of course, not "vocals"

[rafaelsoltren]

I always pray to God to increase my faith and he never fails me... Incredible.

[yosefyahu]

What a wonderful blessing it is to traverse the world and see all those great testimonies to YAH's Beauty, Mercy, Loving Kindness and Infinite Greatness! HalelluYAH!

[ogloc]

Someone once told me that there was “no evidence” of the Israelites in egypt LOL

[rayross]

Thanks Joel, your channel is off to a great start. I spoke on this at church and people were very interested in the story of this inscription. Your interview on Digging For Truth was a great help to me and I shared the info.
