We're closing our Sodom series with a bang! Enjoy this special extra-length episode with Dr. Titus Kennedy, as he, Tim Mahoney, and Steve Law discuss compelling reasons why positively identifying the Biblical city of Zoar acts as a key, unlocking the mystery of Sodom's true location.

 

 

 

 

With this in mind, is the archaeological site of Es Safi, located southeast of the Dead Sea, Biblical Zoar? If so, does this make a powerful case for Bab edh-Dhra, Numeira, Feifa, and Khanazir being the remaining 4 Cities of the Plain that God destroyed with fire and brimstone? Moreover, what does the archaeology show about how these 4 sites were destroyed and did their destructions occur in the same time period?

 

 

 

 

All of this and more is discussed!

In our final episode of this new series, Timothy Mahoney, Mori Michael Shelomo Bar Ron, and Dr. Pieter van der Veen close their important discussion about Mori Michael's translational work on the Proto-Sinaitic inscriptions.

 

 

 

 

In addition to the Proto-Sinaitic inscriptions found at Serabit el-Khadim do we also have evidence for the Israelites in Egyptian hieroglyphs? Is it possible these hieroglyphs contain Hebrew names such as Levi or Issachar? Moreover, were the gods, Sopdu and Ptah, Egyptian understandings of Israel's God, El or Yahweh, and how might this relate to Goshen, the main site where the Israelites sojourned in Egypt?

 

 

 

 

Also find out how you can support Mori Michael's ongoing translational work of the Proto-Sinaitic inscriptions for his Masters and eventual PhD Thesis!

In our 2nd episode of this new series, Timothy Mahoney, Mori Michael Shelomo Bar Ron, and Dr. Pieter van der Veen continue their fascinating discussion about Mori Michael's translational work on the Proto-Sinaitic inscriptions.

 

 

 

 

Do these inscriptions give clues to the location of Mount Sinai? Is a conflict between worshippers of the Golden Calf and worshippers of the one true God revealed? Is it possible that some of these inscriptions were written by Moses, himself, and actually contain his name in Proto-Alphabetic characters?

 

 

 

 

All of this and more is discussed! We hope you enjoy this exciting episode!

In this 1st episode of our new series, Timothy Mahoney is joined by Mori Michael Shelomo Bar Ron and Dr. Pieter van der Veen as they dive into a major update on Proto-Sinaitic research.

 

 

 

 

With the backing of Dr. van der Veen as his Academic Advisor, Mori Michael, is pursuing a Masters degree and possibly a PhD, doing important translational work on the world's oldest alphabet, the Proto-Sinaitic inscriptions of Serabit el-Khadim and Wadi el-Hol!

 

 

 

 

These inscriptions were featured in our films The Moses Controversy and Journey to Mount Sinai Part 1. Both Mori Michael and Dr. van der Veen believe them to be the earliest form of Hebrew and that they align with the time of the Israelite sojourn and Exodus. Enjoy this first episode and please stay tuned for the rest!

Do the archaeological remains found during excavations confirm a meteorite airburst over this ancient city? Does Tall el-Hammam fit the chronological and geographical criteria laid out in the Biblical text for Sodom? Did the Israelites camp on the ruins of Sodom before Joshua led them over the Jordan to conquer the Promised Land? All of this and more is covered!

As we continue our series on theories of Sodom's location, a very prominent archaeological site known as Tall el-Hammam needs to be addressed more fully.

 

 

 

 

This site located to the northeast of the Dead Sea has been proposed by archaeologist, Dr. Steven Collins, and others to be the remains of Sodom, the most prominent of Cities of the Plain destroyed in the book of Genesis.

 

 

 

 

In this episode (part 1 of a 2 part disucssion) Tim and Dr. Collins take a deep dive into the evidence he and his team have uncovered at the site during their many dig seasons. The two also discuss the raging debate surrounding Tall el-Hammam's identification as Sodom as it relates to geography, chronology, and interpretation of the archaeological finds.

Does Jethro returning to his own "country" in Exodus 18:27 create a problem for advocates of a Mount Sinai location in modern day Saudi Arabia?                   Is this verse strong evidence for the mountain being in the Sinai Peninsula or does the overall context of the passage actually strengthen the case for a Saudi Arabian location?                   NOTE: This Podcast contains content from our Mount Sinai Expanded material.

Does our current understanding of population sizes in ancient Canaan and Egypt mean that the Israelite numbers during the Exodus should be only tens of thousands, as some scholars claim?             Or is there evidence that population sizes in these nations are misunderstood and actually much larger, further establishing there being two to three millions Israelites during the Exodus?

In Part 2, Timothy Mahoney and Dr. Fred Baltz discuss powerful astronomical evidence for the Star of Bethlehem described in Matthew's account of the birth of Christ.

 

 

 

 

Having established a new timeframe in which to look for the birth of Jesus in Part 1, Dr. Baltz reveals a stunning pattern of evidence in the sky for the star that sent the Magi in search of the one born King of the Jews.

In Part 1, Timothy Mahoney and Dr. Fred Baltz discuss the census described in Luke Chapter 2 during the birth of Christ.

 

 

 

 

Critical scholars have claimed that Luke is inaccurate for noting Quirinius as Roman 'Governor' of Syria at this time, thus throwing the historicity of his Gospel into question. 

 

 

 

 

However, are these scholars searching in the correct time, was Quirinius in a different type of governing role, and are they looking for the right type of census? Moreover, has Herod the Great's death been dated properly? An amazing pattern of evidence is revealed, illustrating that Luke's Gospel is true history!
