The Bible records unexpected, unlikely physical events as bookends of the earthly life of Jesus – a mysterious star, an overwhelming earthquake. If these were actual historical events, would there be evidence? Evidence we can examine today? Yes there would.
Thousands of years ago there was a devastating earthquake that ripped the Mediterranean. We know this because the quake was recorded by the famous historian Josephus at the exact time of the famous Battle of Actium, on September 2 of 31 B.C. It’s clearly documented not just historically, but physically. The Actium quake created a geophysical record in the strata of the Dead Sea that can be seen today. Not only can we see it, but more importantly, we can use it to find the evidence of an even more pivotal quake.
Join us, as we literally touch the rocks of history. A moment in time, when the world was changed forever.
