Welcome to the first episode of season 8, The Mysteries of the Soleb Temple and the God of Israel. 

In this episode we do a deep dive at an ancient archeological site in the Sudan desert called the Soleb Temple. There is an inscription on a column there that just might link a nomadic tribe called the Shasu to the Israelite God, Yahweh.

#61 The Mysteries of the Soleb Temple and The God of Israel

This is a survey of religions from the earliest of times starting with ancient ceremonial burials and gifts goods, followed by the development of massive kingdoms and Temples. In this series we will dig deep into pre-Israelite cults and how they influenced Judaism and ultimately Christianity, what were the political motivations behind the scripture and the gospels? Then we will conclude with the Holocaust in the 1930's and look at how religion may have been involved in the murder of over 6 million Jews.
